Tha long ospadail sh貌nraichte a tha a' toirt seachad obair-lannsa aig muir, a' d猫anamh air na daoine as bochda ann an Afraga. Chan eil aca ach aon bhliadhna airson an obair do-dh猫anta seo a dh猫anamh - c霉ram a' thoirt do dhaoine nach fhaigh e ann an 脿ite sam bith eile. Tha an luchd-meidigeach saor-thoileach a' cumail orra gu trang. Anns a' phr貌gram seo tha sinn a' coinneachadh ri Maimouna aig a bheil cnap air a h-aodann a tha air tilleadh. Cuideachd tha Ignace, gille 貌g a' fulang le b貌cadh neurofibroma air aodann agus tha c脿raid 貌g ann a tha crom-chasach. Tha an turas aig Maimouna gu math doirbh leis an Dotair Nerida, a rinn obair-lannsa oirre bho chionn ceithir bliadhna, a' dol gu Guinea airson a toirt chun an t-soithich airson obair-lannsa deatamach fhaighinn, ach feumaidh iad a bhith faiceallach oir chan eil fada bho bha Ebola anns an d霉thaich seo.
A unique hospital ship offering life-saving surgery sets sail for the poorest of the poor in Africa. It has just one year to do the impossible - to provide the care these people cannot get any other way.
The volunteer medics continue to treat extraordinary cases of medical need. Featured patients include Maimouna, a 17-year-old past patient whose facial tumour has now returned; Ignace, a teenage boy with a neurofibroma tumour which covers half his face; and young twins with identical bowed legs. Maimouna's journey to the ship is dramatic as ship doctor Nerida, who operated on Maimouna four years ago with Surgeon Tertius, travels to Guinea, which has only recently been cleared of Ebola, to find Maimouna and bring her to the ship for critical surgery.
