final wish

Queensland paramedics’ act of kindness inspires ‘final wish’ ambulance. The service was inspired by the regular acts of kindness Queensland paramedics perform, including the touching story of Graeme Cooper and Danielle Kellan who went out of their way to grant a woman’s dying wish. The Hervey Bay ambos had been tasked with taking the woman to a palliative care unit at a local hospital when she mentioned her love of the sea. They took a small diversion, wheeled her out of the ambulance on her trolley bed, and perched it on the foreshore, allowing her to take in one last, long sweep of the ocean. This photo of that intimate moment went viral.
