Tauranga's Diane Wilson

Tauranga's Diane Wilson

Donations on a Give a Little page dedicated to a Bay of Plenty woman fighting for her life after a car crash in Melbourne have surpassed $2000 this afternoon.

Diane Wilson, 23, suffered a smashed pelvis, broken neck at the base of her skull and brain bleeds and was in an induced coma in Melbourne's Alfred Hospital after the car she was driving was T-boned.

The crash happened on the corner of Through Rd and Toorak Rd about 2.10am on Sunday (Australia time). It is unclear if she will survive and her family have been left "absolutely devastated".

Read the full story here.

A fundraising page was set up to help the family with costs involved in Miss Wilson's recovery. $585 had been raised by last night and this afternoon the total is $2,057.
