Injured Sydney mum asking about her missing son after Barcelona attack
A Sydney mother hospitalised after the Barcelona terror attack is repeatedly asking for her son who has not been seen since a van tore through the tourist district.
Julian Cadman, 7, became separated from his mother Jomarie "Jom" when the vehicle rammed pedestrians in Barcelona's busy Las Ramblas Boulevard on Thursday afternoon.
His father Andrew is expected to arrive in Spain late on Saturday night to join the search for the "gorgeous" little boy.
Ms Cadman, who suffered serious injuries in the terror attack, has constantly asked hospital staff about her son and has been sedated.
She has undergone surgery on her leg and will soon have an operation on her face.
The mother and son were in Spain for a wedding when they became separated.

Australian caught up in Barcelona, Paris, and London attacks
Mr Cadman is understood to be British, and Julian – a student at St Bernadette's Primary in Lalor Park – may have dual citizenship by descent, according to media reports.
He was reportedly born and raised in Kent, UK, but moved to Sydney with his family three years ago.
The boy's concerned aunt Maricar Querimit Estera, posted onto Facebook saying "pray for my nephew who [is] still missing in Barcelona attack... your family [is] waiting for you".
Another aunt, Norma Canaveral, who Julian called "granny" described the little boy as "gorgeous" and told how he enjoyed playing with her grandson.
Foreign Minister Julie Bishop said four Australians were injured in the attack targeting tourists in the Spanish city's Las Ramblas district.
Two Victorian men were hit by the van driven into crowds on a busy promenade but have been released from hospital.
At least 100 people were injured in the attack claimed by Islamic State, while Ms Bishop said Catalonian authorities put the death toll at 16.
