\"CabooltureNot many people can say they had their child and got married where they work, but I can.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I was working at Caboolture Hospital Emergency Department back in November 2002 when my then-fianc\u00e9 became very sick the night before our wedding.<\/p>\n

I brought him in to Emergency and they found he had a perforated appendix with
\nperitonitis.<\/p>\n

\"Tash

Wedding day<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Weddng

Weddng held in the Chapel<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n

He had surgery the next morning – our wedding day.<\/p>\n

We had a beach wedding planned for that evening and friends and relatives were arriving from inter-state. I was also pregnant at the time, which I found out about two weeks after our invitations went out.<\/p>\n

He really wanted to get to our wedding, and his surgeon was happy for him to come home for a couple of hours.<\/p>\n

Hospital staff tried their best to prepare him to come home just for the ceremony, but he was too weak.<\/p>\n

Seeing our desperation, my colleagues suggested that the ceremony could still go ahead at the chapel.<\/p>\n

\"Tash

Tash Willmett and Josh<\/p><\/div>\n

The\u00a0chaplain was so beautiful, she walked around the hospital and picked flowers out of the gardens to put in the chapel to make it look nice.<\/p>\n

Dezlee, one of the nurses who still works here, got him dressed and brought him down in a recliner\u00a0chair and we got married in front of our family, friends and colleagues.<\/p>\n

Dr Graham Zerk from Emergency took photos for us.<\/p>\n

Our son, Josh, was born here in May 2003.<\/p>\n

Even though we\u2019re no longer married, he and I both enjoy sharing the story of our crazy wedding day.<\/p>\n

I will always be grateful to my wonderful colleagues who did all they could to help us that day.<\/p>\n
