Since 1975, the Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service has responded to countless emergencies across Northern NSW. Just over ten years ago, Kristyn was involved in a near fatal motor vehicle accident on the M1. She sustained life threatening injuries and was hospitalised for five months.

Kristyn has no memory of the week leading up to the accident, or the two months after it. The condition is known as post-traumatic amnesia and forced Kristyn to re-learn basic life skills including walking, talking and feeding herself.

“The amount of my gratitude really is insurmountable. What an incredible service they provide! And the horrific, heartbreaking moments they must carry with them day to day, job to job – massive, massive respect for each and every one of them, they’re quite simply my heroes!”

Thank you Kristyn, for allowing us to share your story again as part of our 50th year of operation.
