I am ineligible to apply for this as my experience was a decade ago. I have taken part in a number of projects and remember the emotions it evoked - often very painful; if ICU care is going to improve for those who have yet to go through it I feel we have an obligation to participate if possible.

The researchers I have worked with were fantastic and did their best to grasp what we have been through and were also enlightened and educated by the discussions.
