Mr Truswell added: "We're all traumatised.
"As well as the serious injuries Lee's suffered from this apparently unprovoked attack, which has left him hospitalised and unable to support his family, it has robbed him of these early few weeks with his son which I knew he was looking forward to."
Lee's sister Nicolette added: "We don't want anybody else's family to have to feel like this, at the minute we don't even know how Lee is going to be.
"It's not like a broken leg where it heals in six weeks - this could be life-changing."
Police say the attacker left the scene on Saturday with a woman in a white or cream dress and would like to speak with her as well as any witnesses or those with information.
In a separate incident two men were arrested and bailed after an 18-year-old man was found lying unconscious on Knifesmithgate, Chesterfield, with a serious head injury at 3am on Friday.
Witnesses or anyone with information to either assault should call 0345 123 33 33.
