My husband and I were on the Carnival Miracle at the time this gentleman was medevaced, We are from the UK and were celebrating our Silver wedding Anniversay, and my husbands 50th birthday.
We hope the man has made a full recovery, please send our best wishes to him, and we would like to let the coast guard know what a fantastic job they do.Well Done to you all.
