"Everyone in the theatre has a role. I couldn't do it without them. The scrub team are indispensable. We all enjoy what we do." ❤️ #OperationLive @channel5_tv@channel5_tv #OperationLive is absolutely incredible. I’ve always had the upmost regard for our amazing medics but these live surgeries are mind blowing! We are so fortunate that talented hard working people like these have chosen this profession. Bless you all and thank you
— Jo Keeling (@jskeeling) April 10, 2019#OperationLive #scoliosis Timely access to surgery when a clinical decision is made is so important. Children are at increased risk of reduced outcomes, increased blood loss and longer recovery times the greater the wait for surgery. @HSELive https://t.co/VxSDBuqWie
— The Scoliosis Advocacy Network (@scolionetwork) April 10, 2019👏We can’t get over how courageous 18 year old Chloe is!💜
