Meet Kaitlyn, the superwoman who's shining bright at TPCH as a surgical nurse making waves in healthcare and on the stage as a Miss Universe Australia state finalist for Queensland! 🌟💖

"It's such an exciting program! Each finalist is currently raising funds for ToyBox Australia - a charity that supports sick and disadvantaged children. If I make it through to the state nationals, we’ll head to Vietnam to where we'll be doing more volunteer work," said Kaitlyn.

Kaitlyn's journey is a testament to her hard work, compassion, and ambition, proving that you can make a difference both in scrubs and on stage.

Let's all cheer her on as she continues to rock both her scrubs and her crown! 👑

“Just days after having my third child, I was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy—and my world changed. I was told I needed open-heart surgery, and they implanted an LVAD to keep my heart going while I wait for a heart transplant. It’s been a whirlwind, but I’m beyond grateful for my amazing family and friends who’ve been by my side through it all. More than anything, I can’t wait to get home to my kids.” ❤

I..... Can’t stop taking natural remedies because it calms me down from depression, I'm speaking from experience when I say that pills don't always work for everyone. I've had this terrible mental health issue for a long time, but it wasn'tuntil I found Dr Usman on Facebook that he used natural remedies to treat my anxiety and depressive disorder. He also treats patients with ADHD, OCD, PTSD, and bipolar. Attempt to find him 👇👇👇 www.facebook.com/123141217451016

I have used natural medication is really the best. All thanks to herblist OSE for his herbal medicine he sent for me. I was having Endometriosis, Fibromyalgia, Rheumatoid arthritis for years now. But with his herbal medicine, I am totally free from these illness. You can also contact him today and be free from yours via his page www.facebook.com/521904684335818

At just 25, Rhys has faced more challenges than many do in a lifetime. After a cardiac arrest while playing footy in March 2022, he was diagnosed with heart failure (cardiomyopathy).

"I wasn’t feeling well for months before it happened," Rhys said. "Things got worse quickly after the cardiac arrest."

Rhys underwent six open-heart surgeries before receiving TPCH's 500th heart transplant—a milestone that gave him a second chance at life. The journey wasn’t easy. Rhys spent 80 days in the hospital post-transplant, including time on life support, lost 20kg, and had to relearn how to walk.

Now, nearly a year later, Rhys is preparing to return to work and has set his sights on getting back to playing footy.

“I’ve been through so much, but I’m ready get back into it. This heart saved me, and I’m going to make the most of it.”

Hello, I want to write a little review about the good work of @asha osemudiamen who cured me from hSV 1 and 2 for just 2 week with his herbal medicine, I never believe I can be normal again and have a good life like others I always unhappy the day I got diagnose with the virus, I was lost of hope when my doctor told me there is no cure, I am so grateful once again. Reach out to the herbalist ⬇️ Email: drashaosemudiamen@gmail.com dr-asha-osemudiamen-1-natural-remedies-home-cure.simdif.com

"I was skeptical about herbal medicine until a friend shared their success story with me. I decided to give it a try and contacted Doctor usman for their healing remedies. Within 15 days, I was amazed to find myself cured of my herpes! Doctor usman have also helped with various other ailments, including psoriasis, PTSD, diabetes, hepatitis, asthma, epilepsy, and more. If you're struggling with any health issues, I highly recommend reaching out to them for help. They're a lifesavers. 👇👇👇 www.facebook.com/123141217451016

Love is in the air on TPCH GEM Ward with 96-year-old patient June and husband Frank about to celebrate their 73rd wedding anniversary. 💕

The couple met while working at an optical company in NSW.

“I used to watch June walk past my desk and finally plucked up the courage to ask her out to a jazz concert, she was beautiful,” Frank said.

Frank says that the key to a happy marriage is to appreciate each other every day and be capable of loving one another without conditions.

“Our best memories together were bringing up our two wonderful sons. We used to drive up to Surfers Paradise every holiday time so the family could enjoy the beach - it was wonderful."

“I came into TPCH to get my heart fixed. I needed a new valve to strengthen the weak part. I’m usually a go-with-the-flow person, and not much phases me. But if I had my time again, I would take better care of my heart. The key to a healthy life is a healthy heart.”

“Just days after having my third child, I was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy—and my world changed. I was told I needed open-heart surgery, and they implanted an LVAD to keep my heart going while I wait for a heart transplant. It’s been a whirlwind, but I’m beyond grateful for my amazing family and friends who’ve been by my side through it all. More than anything, I can’t wait to get home to my kids.” ❤

I..... Can’t stop taking natural remedies because it calms me down from depression, I'm speaking from experience when I say that pills don't always work for everyone. I've had this terrible mental health issue for a long time, but it wasn'tuntil I found Dr Usman on Facebook that he used natural remedies to treat my anxiety and depressive disorder. He also treats patients with ADHD, OCD, PTSD, and bipolar. Attempt to find him 👇👇👇 www.facebook.com/123141217451016

I have used natural medication is really the best. All thanks to herblist OSE for his herbal medicine he sent for me. I was having Endometriosis, Fibromyalgia, Rheumatoid arthritis for years now. But with his herbal medicine, I am totally free from these illness. You can also contact him today and be free from yours via his page www.facebook.com/521904684335818

At just 25, Rhys has faced more challenges than many do in a lifetime. After a cardiac arrest while playing footy in March 2022, he was diagnosed with heart failure (cardiomyopathy).

"I wasn’t feeling well for months before it happened," Rhys said. "Things got worse quickly after the cardiac arrest."

Rhys underwent six open-heart surgeries before receiving TPCH's 500th heart transplant—a milestone that gave him a second chance at life. The journey wasn’t easy. Rhys spent 80 days in the hospital post-transplant, including time on life support, lost 20kg, and had to relearn how to walk.

Now, nearly a year later, Rhys is preparing to return to work and has set his sights on getting back to playing footy.

“I’ve been through so much, but I’m ready get back into it. This heart saved me, and I’m going to make the most of it.”

Hello, I want to write a little review about the good work of @asha osemudiamen who cured me from hSV 1 and 2 for just 2 week with his herbal medicine, I never believe I can be normal again and have a good life like others I always unhappy the day I got diagnose with the virus, I was lost of hope when my doctor told me there is no cure, I am so grateful once again. Reach out to the herbalist ⬇️ Email: drashaosemudiamen@gmail.com dr-asha-osemudiamen-1-natural-remedies-home-cure.simdif.com

"I was skeptical about herbal medicine until a friend shared their success story with me. I decided to give it a try and contacted Doctor usman for their healing remedies. Within 15 days, I was amazed to find myself cured of my herpes! Doctor usman have also helped with various other ailments, including psoriasis, PTSD, diabetes, hepatitis, asthma, epilepsy, and more. If you're struggling with any health issues, I highly recommend reaching out to them for help. They're a lifesavers. 👇👇👇 www.facebook.com/123141217451016

I refer Him to you🥰 if you're suffering from any kinds of virus , infections , diseases💕 etc. Contact🙏 👉👉https://www.facebook.com/248551871671999

Love is in the air on TPCH GEM Ward with 96-year-old patient June and husband Frank about to celebrate their 73rd wedding anniversary. 💕

The couple met while working at an optical company in NSW.

“I used to watch June walk past my desk and finally plucked up the courage to ask her out to a jazz concert, she was beautiful,” Frank said.

Frank says that the key to a happy marriage is to appreciate each other every day and be capable of loving one another without conditions.

“Our best memories together were bringing up our two wonderful sons. We used to drive up to Surfers Paradise every holiday time so the family could enjoy the beach - it was wonderful."

“I came into TPCH to get my heart fixed. I needed a new valve to strengthen the weak part. I’m usually a go-with-the-flow person, and not much phases me. But if I had my time again, I would take better care of my heart. The key to a healthy life is a healthy heart.”
