Noah will require occupational therapy, rehabilitation, speech therapy and physiotherapy on his long recovery journey and could be in the Royal Children’s Hospital for months.“The first 72 hours after a head injury is the most crucial so when he made it through that they were all very happy and continue to be happy with each small progression.
Noah’s parents, Rachael and Stephen, have been by his side since the accident, and Melissa said they were the “most positive and strongest people” she knows.“Obviously it’s an emotional rollercoaster .
