A Derry man who was left in a coma after being hit by a car in the United States is 'sitting up and making good progress'. Patrick Brennan suffered severe injuries in the collision in March and had to go through several life-saving surgeries in a California hospital.
The keen GAA player who had previously lived in Australia, had made a life for himself in Los Angeles and was living, working and playing for a local club in the area at the time of the accident.
Following the collision, which occurred during a weekend away, Mr Brennan had to be put into an induced coma in intensive care and his parents, Mary and Maurice, rushed to his bedside.
