I was first admitted to The Royal Children’s Hospital on March 10 1972 aged 2 with 3rd degree burns. I continued treatment at RCH 9west followed by years of plastic surgery at 4 nth. My last surgery I was 21 spending time at 4 nth then 9 west. I remember very special staff at the hospital- a ward clerk Trudi at 4 north and a very special Sister Wendy Swift.
There is no doubt the RCH and their staff save my life. In 2005 we began fundraising in Erica with Bikes at the Pub we raised about $10,000 over 3 years.. After a living away for a few years we returned to Erica where we began Bikes R Back event held Good Friday with the last two totalling close to $17,000. We are building up to this years event . Our way of saying thanks to such a wonderful Hospital.
