Actor Jessica Falkholt is clinging to life after a fiery crash on the NSW south coast claimed the lives of her parents and sister, with her relatives now grappling with how to explain to her she’s the sole survivor.


Jessica, 28, and Annabelle, 21, were pulled from the wreckage after their car collided with a four-wheel-drive near Ulladulla on Boxing Day, killing their parents.


Jordan Brohier and his girlfriend Annabelle Falkholt.

Annabelle was flown to Liverpool Hospital in a critical condition and died as a result of her injuries on Friday.


The driver of the four-wheel-drive, Craig Whitall, also died in the fiery crash.


“(Jessica) may wake up and, if she does wake up, is she going to be a different person?” James Randazzo, husband of Jessica’s second cousin Cathy Randazzo, told News Corp Australia on Sunday.


“If we get to that point then someone is going to have to break the news to her about the rest of her family.”



Jessica, who has played a role in TV drama Home and Away, remains in a critical condition at St George Hospital, a hospital spokeswoman told AAP on Sunday afternoon.


She has undergone several surgeries including the removal of one kidney and part of her skull and is in a coma, News Corp Australia reported.


“The neurosurgeon spoke to the family (on Friday) and said it could take weeks or months because they do not know how much brain damage there is,” Mr Randazzo said.

With the @cricketworldcup underway in England, we’ve taken a look at all the best players from past and present to select the ultimate Cricket XV! SQUAD NOTES https://t.co/B3rnj5OBuJ #CWC19 pic.twitter.com/KuUtPU77PT — All Blacks (@AllBlacks) June 2, 2019 And they’ve got some pretty cool reasons for picking some pretty cool players. Curtly Ambrose : If anyone wants to argue with this selection then take it up with Sir Curtly himself. We dare you. MS Dhoni : The Richie McCaw of Cricket. Enough said. Dwayne Leverock : Famous for his one-handed catch at the 2003 World Cup, the 130kg Bermudian would surely make just as big a splash on the rugby field. Jofra Archer runs in to bowl  Get...

Banned Bancroft's journey of self-discovery

Image
READ MORE © Getty Images Spanish lessons, yoga and a host of community work have all been part of the path taken by Cameron Bancroft since the Newlands ball-tampering scandal. The Australia batsman has been looking to seek the sort of perspective and self-knowledge that will prevent him from following the kind of instructions issued to him by David Warner in the Cape Town dressing room. Bancroft spoke in Perth on Saturday ahead of his return to cricket via Twenty20 and 50-over appearances in the Northern Territory, where he will also endeavour to work closely in developing local talent. It’s the next step on the path away from Newlands as Bancroft serves a nine-month ban from the game imposed by Cricket Australia under its code of conduct. Perspective on life was greatly needed as Bancroft, Warner and the former captain Steven Smith pondered what evolved in South Africa, and Bancroft said he had spent plenty of time devoting himself broadening his own knowledge and also to...

Drones to become the new naval mine hunters under Morrison pledge

READ MORE Advanced navies worldwide are increasingly turning to drones to do mine hunting and clearing work at sea. Marcus Hellyer, a former Defence Department official and now a senior analyst at the Australian Strategic Policy Institute, said that using autonomous and unmanned sea vehicles allowed the crewed ship to stay at the edge of a minefield, keeping naval personnel safer. The Morrison government has promised if re-elected to fast-track the building of two new mine hunting naval ships. Credit: Nine Newspapers “Common sense has prevailed,” he said of the decision. “Rather than keeping going down the path where you have old technology being extended at great cost, this will introduce new technology more quickly and that’s a good thing. “The current path does keep the human at the centre of the minefield, but the new approach lets them stay outside the minefield and let autonomous vehicles go in and do the dangerous work.” Article source: https:/...
