| Summary |
17-year-old fistula victim Wubit Abune walked hundred of miles to a small charitable hospital in Addis Ababa. Viewers were so moved, they funded a mobile hospital to treat patients and train local medical staff. Thirty years ago, gynaecologists Reg and Catherine Hamlin left Sydney for a three year contract in Addis Ababa that turned into a lifetime's commitment. Walking Back to Happiness visits the hospital built by this remarkable couple and meets some of the 14,000 poor women they have saved from wretched and lonely lives. This BBC education programme, Walking Back to Happiness, looks at the social issues of poverty and lack of medicine and health care in a poverty stricken environment |
