Hi I'm Andrea Wandin and at the request of Lana, I've created this GoFundMe to support Tyrese on his long and painful journey toward healing.

Tyrese is facing multiple reconstuctive surgeries and overwhelming medical costs after surviving a horrific and senseless machete attack - an attack that tragically claimed the life of his brother boy, Kaiden Morgan-Johnston. Both young men are proud Aboriginal leaders, deeply respected and loved in their community.

Tyrese survived, but his road ahead is steep. He faces multiple rounds of plastic surgery, along with ongoing medical treatments and therapy. The emotional and physical toll is immense - and so is the financial burden.

This fund-raiser will help cover:

▪︎ Ongoing plastic and reconstruction surgeries.

▪︎ Medical bills and hospital stays.

▪︎ Travel and accommodation for specialist care.

▪︎ Mental health support and trauma recovery.

▪︎ Everyday costs while the family focuses on healing.

Tyrese is a fighter, and his family is doing everything they can to support him. But they can't do it alone. Every donation - no matter how small - brings hope, relief, and strength to a young man who has endured the unimaginable.

Please share this campaign and help us rally around Tyrese and his family. Let's show them that love is stronger than violence, and that community can carry them through. This tragedy has shaken many, but it has also reminded us of the strength that comes from standing together.

Thank you for your compassion and support.
