Mike

We were only 15km south of Laura on Cape York Peninsula. Local nurses from the Aid Post stabilised him and The Flying Doctor was passing on a routine mission so diverted and arrived within 30 minutes with their own doctor and nurse. Took him back to Cairns where he will be 6-8 weeks.

It was a hell of a job to carry him up the slope from the creek on a plastic back-slab the nurses brought along.

Yes good trip. We had finished anyhow and I was going to throw away the jeep because I did not need it any more!
