A 10-year-old Australian boy remained in a coma Friday following a collision earlier this week between two helicopters that killed four people, including the boy's mother.
Another boy, age 9, who was hospitalized in critical condition after the crash, awoke Thursday after suffering brain trauma, according to health authorities. The 9-year-old boy's mother remained hospitalized in stable condition.
A pilot, two British visitors and the 10-year-old boy's mother Vanessa Tadros, 36, were killed when the helicopter they were aboard plunged to the ground after its rotor blades were sheared off. Those most seriously injured were aboard that helicopter. Earlier this week, the boy's father, Simon Tadros, wrote on social media that his son was in an induced coma and hooked up to a life support machine to help him breathe.
Also killed in the crash were pilot Ashley Jenkinson, 40, and British tourists Ron Hughes, 65, and Diane Hughes, 57.
