What impact can we have on our own outcomes? In this episode we meet mother of four Annie and her husband Gerry from Perth as they face the toughest day of their lives. Annie has aggressive breast cancer in one breast, but she has made the decision to have both her breasts removed to give herself the best chance of living cancer-free. Ron Ryan from Daylesford Victoria takes his mum Jane for some tests to discover why she’s been having problems with her memory. Together they hear the ‘scary words’ that make up Jane’s diagnosis. In the neonatal ward where extremely premature babies fight for life, a young mother holds her eight day old newborn for the very first time. Sixty four year old Larry McCarthur is obese… a problem affecting nearly one third of all adult Australians. Larry weighs more than 160 kilos. He suffers severe osteoarthritis in his knees and can barely walk 20 steps. Today he hopes that will change when he undergoes a gastric sleeve operation. The surgery will reduce the size of his stomach to a little wider than a garden hose.
