DOC WHO SAVED ME 2016
One close to my heart is surgeon David Nott, who was honoured for his work in war-torn countries.
One day ISIS raided the hospital in Syria where he was operating on a child – but he refused to leave. The other surgeons told him: “Don’t say a word. As soon as they hear your voice, you will be killed.” The other surgeons spoke, and he survived.
He’s also the surgeon who saved my life when I had sepsis 16 years ago. Later he told me my organs had begun to shut down, I was six hours from death.
