a little boy it’s just incredible [Music] can you come and get me because I did change the way I was at work I am more affected by certain cases but it makes you better at what you do [Music] all

pediatric trauma pool with it the whole child is on his way to research car whilst playing outside his home three years old and he’s been run over by a car run over means the wheel’s gone over again dealing with children is unique a lot impossible for anyone really not to have that added level of anxiety and that added level of fear there is something just inherently emotive about treating sick children my name is the hems Creed at seen them so they might actually need the wheel that’s gone over them they’re querying a pelvic injuries children respond differently again and we’ve got the pediatric surgeons he’s just landed is everybody’s happy what’s the plan and where we’re going after seeing the severity of his injuries paramedics requested an air ambulance to bring the boy and his mother to Saint George’s it was just a hot summer’s day and I’d been a work Summer’s evening you probably have about 20 children out there at one time he was on his skateboard with his other little friend just skating around and then I went upstairs to put my bag in and that was the moment it happened ah [Music] your world just gets totally turned upside down by seconds oh okay so this is nearly four and about an hour ago a car has reversed over him completely with the rear wheels and the problems injuries it does appear to be moving his neck over to the right side all the time he’s got some bruising and abrasions over the right side of his abdomen and we’re concerned there’s a possible abdominal bleed possibly a pelvic injury okay can we draw these curtains over yeah my name’s Johnny Louis I’m one of the bone doctors can I have a feeling to your neck children often compensate for their injuries and when they fail to do that that often means they’re extremely unwell and then any intervention you make has to be done quickly what’s going on with that neck ah we need to have a proper look at it just gonna slip this down a little bit wow I’m still not moving his neck we need to scan are we on the trolley oxygen all right let’s go [Music] [Music] it’s been 40 minutes since three-year-old Louis arrived in recess after being hit by a car doctors are concerned the impact has caused irreversible damage to his neck and spine run over front back wheels I’ve gone over he’s got bruising on his chest across the pelvis but his head has been stuck in that rotated position he hasn’t moved here the Bony pelvis is a concern the other slight worry about is I haven’t actually seen him move either of those lower limbs he’s only three [Music] as soon as we know what’s going on yeah let’s go back pretty much as soon as we’ve done the scan yeah we’ll open the door and get you back in okay since becoming a dad you have sort of added a bit of empathy with the parents see you understand why that situation is so terrifying for them in a way that you never really did before you know I got three daughters so when I found out I was pregnant with Louis it totally felt different from all the other pregnancies straight away because I’m carrying my son What’s it gonna be like just a total totally different love so I just can’t describe it so I love them all the same but there’s just that just that little percent for Lou life just froze everything flushed through my head from the day he was born you kind of kicked yourself thinking well did I do that enough with him was there enough individual times that I had with Louie [Music] you want to see if there’s something on my plan yes please well done definitely not going to kill you now hey I get it [Music] so back to Alfred did you get that no no you wanna know the Vikings they’re saying the Vikings came up with sarcasm you know what sarcasm is I know what um sarcastic means I don’t I don’t get the other words somebody

George’s with his parents Simon and Helen after falling off his bike and hurting his ankle every time and you get a pain in your leg just inhale he was sat on the handlebars of his BMX whilst his dad

motorcycle shop I was going to college then I was going to my evening job which was working for blockbusters and that was seven days a week it seemed like I never had enough money someone offered me an opportunity he said to me there’s nothing to worry about the other guy that was involved that he had all the safe numbers and he had all the combinations I thought about it and I thought about it and thought about it and yeah eventually I thought it was a good idea I planned the robbery of blockbusters it was a staged robbery it was a bit like a theater play basically comes off no I need you to prove this gas which is even better not to laugh [Music] I love that laughing uh [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] [Music] yeah thank you oh thank you when they caught me it was a case of yeah I put my hands up there’s no point in saying that it’s not me I didn’t do it I had so much remorse because it was something stupid and the only reason that I’d done it was to make sure my son had the best start in life I ended up in prison for six months I was told I was going to get early release and I was hoping it was going to be just before he was born I was pacing up and down the cell of a night time just wanting the days to pass quicker Josh was born on the 19th of April and I was released on the 28th of April Josh deep breath it’s meant to be the best thing that could happen to anybody being there whilst your child’s being born in the air is still a big guy now I don’t like to think of it too much Josh Josh how’s your leg feel mate all right to feel a lot better than it did tired yeah make sure you keep breathing that bag and no mate [Music] she’s tender and we were worried about spleen so she that could be a cue doctors have received the initial results of Sam’s CT scan but are still waiting for the final report to ensure the car accident has caused no damage to her spine hey Sam they’ve managed to get a message to your partner to come this way so we’ll wait for him as soon as you’re here if you’re happy we’ll bring him in that’s what we’ll ask you first you have if you’re having some more painkillers and some more anti-sickness medicines the experts will be looking at the scan as have you been known to have a low blood pressure [Music] and Leukemia we’re Fortune remission yeah you’ve been through the middle haven’t you yeah I’ll come back to you in a bit my dear thank you [Music] he’s here do you want them to come in yeah so we’ve just all precautionary at the moment that’s why there’s these blocks and it’s a bit scary all right all right about that when I got there yeah yeah the air ambulance had landed in the field beside us your car was on its side in the ditch it was a big tree starting to come in the top of the car [Music] we’ve been married four years she’d always been honest and told me she couldn’t have children but one day she was just late coming on so we said well we’ll go and buy the test just you know just to try it we did that left it on the side sat in the living room like little two little patient kids and then went over to it found out and that was it so I meant for Phil pregnant naturally we were mayor who is very happy over the moon [Music] the label was long it was needing him before Charlotte came along they’d put Charlotte in the blanket wash the face I was sitting there with Charlotte in my arms and I just sat there and looked her we got a daughter she wasn’t our Miracle she’d made our family complete and it didn’t make any difference whether we had anymore or anything we’ve got our one and we were moving or not so happy when I was little my mum told me that I was a miracle baby as she had leukemia when she was six or seven and she got told that she’d never have kids my mom did spend a lot of time in hospital when I was little and throughout my whole life she could be out within the next two days or she could be in four weeks later like one year she was in hospital over Christmas it did bother me because it was Christmas but also that yeah it was the year that everything was flooding we we had a power caught down our road we couldn’t get to her some days [Music] so when she is in hospital I’m used to the feeling [Music] I first held his son in hospital there is definitely a sense that the two people you love more than anything until the exclusion of anything else in your world are in that room and it’s the first time all three of you have been together as separate human beings and it is pretty amazing put your hands down and just relax for a little while we’ll put your hand that way then yeah and just relax a little bit like Superman yeah well I guess that’s how Superman flies isn’t it having revealed a broken bone in his leg and damaged to his neck will has requested a Neurosurgical assessment for Louis [Music] what’s in your nose it’s a little thing to help you breathe better I think is it annoying you you’ve got bunches Bogies in your nose yeah I know was nothing else I ever wanted to be them was to be a mum because I I was my older part of my life I was brought up in foster care from the age of 12. um I did have more than one foster home so I kind of went lived in lots of different environments [Music] better a little bit more comfortable yeah I never knew my own dad anyway so my my childhood was void I never had the normal family Christmases the family walks in the park the constant noise in the house so the kids running around it just didn’t happen [Music] you’re playing my hair it’s where you go to sleep isn’t it yeah blood my hair and go to sleep is that better my life began at probably 16 because that’s when my life changed and I had children good boy I’m so brave braver than me and that kind of molded me from this minute I gave birth to my first daughter that was what I wanted to be that was just what I wanted and then and every couple they were all planned every single one of my children were absolutely planned I just knew that I would put my all into making sure that no matter what happened I would never leave that child’s side and I would be there for like every waking hour of the day for them and never would never even enter my fault to ever leave them ever I love you lots and lots and lots [Music] bastard doctors have temporarily reset Josh’s broken ankle ahead of further assessment [Music] it’s bastard so when they now come to operate it’ll make it easier because nice [Music] just keep reading and get some sleep [Music] straight away there was an instant bond between me and him there was just something there instantly and it’s always stayed there there’s nothing quite like having your own child in your arms when you’ve missed their birth it’s an overwhelming feeling it takes the whole of you from the inside and it just makes everything feel so super happy but I still don’t look straight oh no it is but my legs burning that’s wrong that doesn’t normally happen I don’t know how would you know you never had done before

it hurts a little bit we’ll get you another pillow underneath what a bearing is that any better it’s nice it’s nice so nice [Music] but as long as he’s got my mentality when it comes to the way that you treat people and just be nice to people you know then I’m happy Josh is being taken for a further scan where Specialists will decide whether or not his ankle requires an operation sorry I was just Wheeling to see if it looks nice they’re not off [Music] you just feel a little bit funny because of all the medicine that’s all [Music] neurosurgeons have arrived to assess the damage in Louie’s neck
