"Subject: With Profound Gratitude - Thank You for Saving Our Son's Life"

Dear Royal Perth Hospital Emergency Department, ICU, Major Trauma Ward, and Outpatient Clinic Teams,

Words feel inadequate to express the depth of gratitude our family feels for the extraordinary care you provided to our 22-year-old son, following a motor vehicle accident. You quite literally saved his life, and in doing so, you have profoundly changed all of our lives forever.

From the moment our son arrived in your Emergency Department, through his time in the ICU and Major Trauma Ward, and continuing now through the Outpatient Clinics, every single member of your teams demonstrated a level of care, professionalism, and compassion that goes beyond anything we could have imagined. You didn't just treat our son's injuries - you cared for our entire family with such genuine kindness during the most frightening time of our lives.

Your skill, dedication, and unwavering commitment to excellence turned what could have been our worst nightmare into a story of hope and recovery. The way you combined cutting-edge medical expertise with such humble, caring service has left an indelible mark on our hearts. You treated our son not just as a patient, but as someone's beloved son, and that made all the difference.

The impact of your care extends far beyond our son's physical healing. You have inspired us (and especially our son who knows he has been given a second chance) to pay forward the kindness and compassion you showed our family. We are committed to being a positive force for others we encounter as we move forward in life, carrying with us the example you set of what it means to truly care for others.

We will hold each and every one of you in our hearts with gratitude forever. There is no way to adequately thank you for giving us our son back, but please know that your work matters more than you could ever know. You are the true heroes, and we are forever in your debt.

With our deepest appreciation and endless gratitude,
