A Quiet Crisis

Most of the calls para-

medics receive aren’t

life-or-death emergen-

cies. They’re placed by

vulnerable people who

are lonely, living in

poverty and need

someone to care.

The Miracle Baby

Nine years ago, an

earthquake in Haiti

caused carnage unlike

anything the world had

seen since the Second

World War. This is the

story of one child’s

astonishing survival

and my journey to the

heart of a country.
