Drs and Nurses who fought hard to save my life

"Drs and Nurses who fought hard to save my life"

About: Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital / Intensive Care Unit

(as the patient),

I owe my life to all the Drs and Nurses who fought hard to save my life. I can't stop thinking about it and saying thank you just isn't enough. I couldn't speak at the time but I didn't realise how serious it was and why so many were working around me or watching.

The last thing I heard/remembered was a Dr saying we can't keep doing this, they probably got 6 breaths left and then I believe they handed me filled syringes to pick one to probably put me to sleep. 

The next thing I woke up in ICU. 

Whilst under, I could hear nurses talking, cleaning up I believe but didn't know how much harder more staff worked to save my life.

I can't thank everyone enough.
