SLATE
00:14 8 a.m. A new day begins with the medical team’s rounds
00:20 Physiotherapist Farooq suggests that Nasser go home

Dialogue (in English)
00:27 Farooq: He needs to see his mother. He can go and come back. If we continue like this, he needs a backslab for the knee and follow-up for physio.
00:41 Elma: So why don’t we do OPD (outpatient) dressing and OPD physio?
00:45 Farooq: The patient can be discharged today and come back.

SLATE
01:01 The team examines the baby born the previous day

01:07 Elma Wong, anaesthetist, MSF (in English)
When I look at the baby now, there isn’t much stimulus. They just keep him warm and we’ll just see what the outcome is. I spoke the family yesterday, and explained that I think the outcome will be poor. I think there’s a central injury, I think there’s a head injury.

SLATE
01:30 The newborn baby dies a few hours later

01:38 Amarah is due to leave the hospital in a few days
01:44 She returns to the operating room one last time for her skin graft

02 :05 Bernard Leménager, surgeon, MSF (en français) :
In 5 days, we’ll remove the dressings and everything should be fine.

SLATE
02:11 Meanwhile, Abdallah has arrived at the hospital in Aden

Abdallah (in Arabic):
02:17 The transfer was very smooth. I felt no pain or fatigue.
02:26 I was welcomed with open arms, the staff have been looking after me very well.
02:31 They operated the night I arrived.
02:38 The surgeon told me that if, after the surgery, I can’t move my fingers,
02:42 they’ll do more surgery to repair the nerve.
02:51 If necessary, they’ll refer me to another facility."

SLATE
03:06 Back to Mocha. It’s 8 p.m.

03:09 Bernard Leménager, surgeon, MSF (en français) :
So, we’re entering the hospital, the very heart of the project.

SLATE
03:13 Bernard the surgeon is working the nightshift
03:19 Furaha has been called back to examine a pregnant woman

Furaha (in English)
03:25 Pelvis is limited and with the volume of this baby, it will never pass.
Furaha (in French)
03:30 She needs a caesarean
Bernard (in French)
03:32 Ok, get her ready, I’ll finish up over there and we’ll get going.

03:56 Furaha (in English)
You take the baby and you start doing a physical exam. Palpation of the head. This is due to the pelvis of the mother not enough to accommodate the head to come down. That’s why you see the head is coming like this.

Furaha (in French)
04:10 Come on young man, let’s weigh you.
04:16 3.5 kilos.
04:19 Let’s say hello to mummy
04:30 Bernard, are you done? You’ve finished before me!

Bernard (in French)
04:38 Furaha and I are having a race!
Furaha (in French)
04:40 The baby weighs in at 3.5kg.
Bernard (in French)
04:41 A big baby!

(you can add these subtitles if you want too, although we chose not to!)
Furaha (in French)
04:44 She wasn’t going to get through on her own.
Bernard (in French)
04:46 There was no point in waiting any longer!

SLATE
04:54 Between August and December 2018,
