There's a petition to get Northern Ireland an air ambulance as a tribute to Dr John.

I didn't know him personally but he was exceptionally well regarded by many of my colleagues. A true ambassador for trauma medicine and hopefully one of his passions, the provision of an air ambulance in NI will be realised.

Heard about this at the weekend and was gutted. He has done so much for so many people and as mentioned he was super fast and was being held up by some of the back markers at the races!

Please sign this folks as its something he was trying to raise awareness of -

This is a seminar John did. Worth a watch to see his sense of humour and what he had to do as part of his job.
