Yahoo News Neighbours reveals a brain damage scare for David
David Tanaka's loved ones are told that he could have brain damage in emotional Neighbours scenes next week.
The Erinsborough doctor faces a health scare of his very own after he's caught up in a horror accident at the Erinsborough Backpackers.
David (Takaya Honda) is waking up after a night on the sofa at the Backpackers when Amy Williams's truck suddenly goes crashing into the building.
The incident sees a set of shelves fall on top of David, knocking him unconscious and crushing his chest too.
When David's brother Leo (Tim Kano) joins forces with Tyler Brennan, they manage to free him just as the emergency services arrive.
Later at the hospital, Dr Karl Kennedy isn't able to offer any instant reassurances to David's family and friends – revealing that he has bruising on the brain and it could be serious.
In a worst-case scenario, this means David could face problems with his speech and his memory – but it's a waiting game to find out whether he really will be badly affected or not.
A Neighbours insider told Digital Spy: "Tensions run high at David's hospital bedside, with Leo blaming Amy for the accident even though she says it was nothing to do with her.
"Even Paul can't help doubting his daughter, knowing how bad this looks for her and how she's been behaving strangely recently.
"It's Aaron who steps in and tries to stop the bickering, pointing out that they should be concentrating on David.
"Aaron is also fearing the worst himself, feeling terrible that he didn't confess his love for David sooner and worrying that he'll have missed his chance if David doesn't pull through."
Neighbours airs these scenes on Tuesday, May 2 at 1.45pm and 5.30pm on Channel 5.
