Another look behind the scenes at the Royal Aberdeen Children’s Hospital.

In this episode, 12-year-old Mia is rushed to the emergency department after slipping on an icy road. She can’t walk, so the team must act quickly and carefully to identify her injuries.

Meanwhile, the epilepsy team battles to control Lewis’s repetitive seizures after he suffers eight in just one day, while Mr Barker operates on a boy's hand that has become stuck in a clenched fist position after some stroke-like symptoms.

And the hospital’s research team embarks on a curious study that asks tonsillectomy patients to eat giant jelly snakes. Show less
