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

World War. This is the
story of one child’s
astonishing survival
and my journey to the
heart of a country.
