00:00My son only popped out for an hour, you know, and all the things that, you know, the achievements

00:13that he wanted to make, all what we wanted to do for him, our future, you know, as Lynette

00:19said, you know, he would have been 22 now, you know, what change would he have made,

00:23would he have found a lifetime partner, he may have been, you know, on his way to be

00:27a father himself.

00:28The thing that we've noticed as well, how much of a support he was for us all, you know,

00:33for a young lad, we could all rely on him, you know what I mean, I'd come back some days

00:37and stress out and he'd just had that big smile, do you want a hug popper and them great big

00:42arms, come have a look at you, you know, and not only that, but we feel alone, you know,

00:48you feel alone and it's hard to take on board, you know, it's, it's, it's not a normal cycle

00:55of life, parents shouldn't have to outlive the children.

00:58The best part is, first of all, helping patients, I know it sounds quite corny, but we can go

01:18out and help people where crews are there, struggling to certain points because they

01:23haven't got the skills or the equipment to do what needs to be done for that nation.

01:28The most challenging thing is, you do go to see a lot of poorly people and you go to see

01:36a lot of dead and destruction.

01:39It can be challenging, but as a team and after every case, we do do a debrief just to ensure

01:45that they can do what they want, not happy, but ensure that they do everything they could

01:49in that situation.
