After 581 days in Mackay Base Hospital, 45-year-old Dan Honnery was discharged on June 6 to cheers and applause. Diagnosed with Guillain-Barré syndrome, a rare autoimmune disorder that causes paralysis, Dan spent over nine months in ICU and a year in the F0 rehabilitation ward.
Hospital staff formed a guard of honour to farewell one of their longest-staying patients, honouring his resilience and remarkable recovery.
A Mackay Hospital and Health Service representative said Dan now begins a new chapter at home in Collinsville, requiring ongoing support and rehabilitation.
“All the very best wishes for your future, Dan!”
