Episode 4
Documentary series following surgery ship African Mercy. In this episode, arrivals on the ship include a mother of six with a life-threatening jaw tumour.
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 baile Benin air a roinn eadar Cr矛ostaidheachd, Ioslam agus Voodoo, creideamh far a bheil cuid a' creidsinn gur e mallachd a tha ag adhbharachadh na galaran uabhasach a tha iad a' faicinn an seo, coltach ris a' chnap a th' air aodann Elisabeth a tha cho m貌r 's gu bheil i ga cumail fh猫in air falach. Cuideachd, tha Ramani a' tighinn a-steach le cnapan cn脿imh air aodann, tha Vivienne ann le cnap uabhasach air a beul agus tha Elie a' dol ann le famhaireachd na chas chl矛.
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.
Benin is home to Christianity, Islam and Voodoo, a religion where some believe curses cause monstrous deformities like 20-year-old Elisabeth's facial tumour, which is so large she hides in the shadows. Also, Ramani comes with huge overgrowth of his facial bones, mother-of-six Vivienne arrives with a life-threatening jaw tumour and Elie who has localised gigantism of his left foot and leg.
