Sydney teen was celebrating his high school graduation in Bali – now he needs ‘skull reconstruction’ after a horror motorbike crash

Sydney teenager Jayden Gram was seriously injured in a motorbike crash in Bali while celebrating his high school graduation. The accident has left him needing several operations, and his case has highlighted the potential cost of overseas medical treatment and the importance of checking travel insurance cover.

Gram was travelling to dinner on Saturday night when the motorbike lost control and hit a car, according to his friend Dylan Van Dyk. He suffered a broken femur and wrist, along with serious facial and other injuries; he is reported to be in a serious but stable condition. A fundraiser had raised A$15,346 towards a A$100,000 goal by Thursday morning. Travel insurance advice accompanying the story notes that motorcycle cover can depend on licensing, engine size, helmets and policy add-ons.
