Professor Roy Kimble, Head of the Paediatric unit at Lady Cilento Children’s hospital in Brisbane, takes us on a day’s rounds. He treats UN refugee 15 year old Masoumeh who sustained serious burns in a fire that killed her father and brother. She dreams of driving a car but Dr Kimble needs to open out her burned hands before she can hold the steering wheel. He also operates on Jada, a three year old who was born with her internal organs outside the abdomen, and on Caleb who was seriously burnt in a fire at home. Caleb has been through 50 hours of operations, and has more surgery to come. We meet Nick and Carly in Canberra who are wrestling with the decision of whether to undergo genetic testing for their second child. Their first child Dash has cystic fibrosis and they have a 25% chance of their next baby inheriting the disease if conceived naturally. In Perth, we meet Adam. At 35 he is an ‘old man’ in the cystic fibrosis world. With his lung function reduced to 20% he now needs a lung transplant. Louise Baker is a rural generalist in Cowra. A cancer survivor herself, her aim is to practice safe medicine in her rural community helping people stay close to family while receiving treatment. She’s been working in Cowra for more than 30 years, and is now delivering the babies of the babies she delivered years ago. And do gentlemen have vasectomies – taking one for the team?
