A few weeks ago, a normal Wednesday visit to the Mall changed our lives forever. What are the chances that a team of Paramedics were on their break at the Mall and passed that Barber shop. Husband sat to have haircut and I went for coffee. 30mins later I made my way back. As I approached the Barber shop I noticed people standing outside and as I walked in, I saw my husband on the floor being given CPR by Paramedics. Shock, fear, panic and uncontrollable crying/shaking as I asked if he was ok and was assisted by the Barber, Police and Paramedics to calm my panic. I passed on his details. I believe my husband died a second time and they did CPR and shocked him back.
In the space of 30 mins the Paramedics saved his life and the Police were supportive as were the Mall Manageress and her team. We owe his life to all of them. I believe if that team had not been there, he would not be here at home recovering with a Defibrillator in his chest. The second ambulance arrived promptly and we were taken to Royal Perth Hospital. Emergency and continued care in the CCU ward was exemplary. Already home and recovering by the next Friday. Forever in debt to so many people. Thank you is not enough. In awe of the team work of all concerned legends. Forever indebted to you all.
