Now, that's an Uncle worthy of the name.

Amen, and thank God the child is resting well.

Hope there are no problems.

And pray she realizes what an incredible man her Uncle really is.

A good example.

I sometimes tell my stepson, "Deal with it, that's what men do."

He's starting to get it. Don't worry about it, don't bitch, whine and complain...whatever life throws at you, you do your best and deal with it.

That's what men do.

A good uncle, indeed.

Mr. Iambai Pisau

Wonderful man, miraculous journey. I'm glad infection didn't set in.

"Mr Pisau said he was embarrassed at the suggestion of being called a hero, instead saying Queensland Health staff deserved all the praise for saving his niece's life."

He may be embarrassed at being called a hero... but Mr Pisau is a hero!

You mean they don’t have federally funded universal child health care and insurance? I thought the USA was the only nation in the world that doesn’t have efficient and affordable emergency health care for children.

Bless this child’s uncle, and the med-flight crews who helped & transported them.

Also can’t help noticing that that instead for crossing the ‘nearby border’ into Inodnesia for help, they opted for a very long and grueling trip to Aussie territory. No need to wonder why.

I wonder what this man would say to those that believe that things like helicopters or reliable trucks are destroying the Earth.

My God could you imagine this kind of thing happening here. There would be an outcry that would be deafening.

Yet this is that type of world that the environmental anti-human destroyers want us to live in.

While this man is a true hero, I mostly feel sadness and anger at this story. Who is keeping these people in the 1920’s?

The Lord's hand is in this. The young girl is so blessed to have an Uncle that, with help from above, moved heaven and earth to save her. It's stories like this that renew my faith in humanity.

Wonderful to hear of that kind of familial love in the farthest flung corners of the world. Just great.

...and bless you.

We've both been here a long time, I don't think we've ever crossed paths before. Greetings.

Well, he’d get better health care here than in Indonesia, anyway (although from what I know, the Indonesians would do their best) but besides anything else, PNG was an Australian territory until quite recently, and we still provide specialist support to them when needed under a variety of agreements (PNG-Australia Development Cooperation Strategy).
