The snippet at the end got me. About the Australian Doctor at a conference in Christchurch during the earthquake, who administered this drug to a man trapped under a beam, and amputated his legs with workmens tools, subsequently saving his life. She did well.

They gave me that drug when I was involved in a head on collision with a badly mangled and smashed arm and hand, IF I had known the effects of the drug before they administered it I would have preferred to put up with the excruciating pain.
Scary and weird hallucinations is what I experienced and it scarred the crap out of me, I can still remember them.

ABC radio did a really interesting piece on the Thai cave rescue just before Christmas last year. They interviewed the anaesthetist diver (Dr Richard Harris) who mentioned he thought there would be a zero % success rate of bring anyone out alive.

I was really proud to be Aussie listening to the story. I cant think of a better news story for 2018
