Cara Griffin has her sights set on a long career as a ear nose and throat surgeon at the PA Hospital, helping to save the lives of patients with head and neck cancer and other serious conditions. A big part of establishing the career is contributing to research and academia in the field, and in that regard she has been helped by the Foundation's supporters not once but twice, and for that she will always be grateful.

Forgot to pop into our office in the PA's main foyer to make a donation and say thank you to the staff that cared for you or a loved one?

No problem, we get it, you're super grateful for the care given but when you've been in hospital all you want to do is get home.

But did you know that making a donation to thank the PA is easy as whipping out your phone and donating via our website pafoundation.org.au, best of all you can leave a message for the healthcare professionals or departments that provided such great care and we will pass on your message of thanks directly to them.

Log on to pafoundation.org.au today and let's do thank you together.

We lost one of our most treasured members of our Foundation community recently after a long battle with cancer.
Nguyen Thai Dang was an amazing man who was forever grateful for the care he received at the PA Hospital
Mr Dang was an incredible example of what gratitude looks like, kindness and thankfulness were a big part of his life, always putting others before himself.
He was so grateful for the care he received from the all of the staff from Cancer Services and Ward 2E who were involved in every level of his care at the PA.
He often spoke of the gift of life he received and how thankful he was to have been given more years than he ever expected.
As well as giving and raising many thousands of dollars for patient care and cancer research at the PA, each New Year's Eve he would visit Ward 2E, and show his gratitude in the most heartful way - arriving with a decorated cake, a bottle of non- alcoholic wine and delicious Vietnamese food so he could celebrate together at midnight with those who cared for him.
A tradition that started as an inpatient in 2017 when he said if he got to another Christmas, he would come back each year and see the New Year in with the 2E staff.
These visits on New Yearโ€™s Eve became something deeply meaningful: a moment to pause, share joy, and welcome another year of life.
His appreciation, generosity and gentle spirit touched us all. Those celebrations will remain one of the most treasured memories of Cancer Services and Ward 2E, and a reminder of the beautiful man he was.
He will be deeply missed, but his tradition and spirit will remain part of our story and will always be fondly remembered.

We offer our deepest sympathy to his wife Diamond and his extended family.

You may have seen or heard it in the news a while ago but just in case you hadn't we just wanted to say how cool is it Australia's first scale-up biomedical manufacturing facility is being built right here on the PA Hospital campus. The TM@TRI building will only add to the PA's standing as a world leader in healthcare and research and we're excited to see how many lives are saved and changed for the better by the addition of this new building in the future.

Not only are donations to the PA tax deductible but giving is good for the soul.

If you're like us you've often intended to donate and got distracted by the busy lives we all lead. So here's a hot tip, set aside 3-5 minutes to make a donation in your calendar and set a reminder in your phone.

Set a reminder today and let's do thank you together.

Across the wider Metro South Health district more than $272,000 has been raised to advance research, patient support, cutting edge equipment and staff education and we just wanted to take another moment to say THANK YOU on behalf of QEII Jubilee Hospital, Beaudesert Hospital, Redland Hospital, Logan Hospital and the PA!

Doctors, nurses and other healthcare staff love hearing from us about when a former or current patient has made a donation as their way of saying thank you and showing gratitude for the excellent care they've received at the PA.
