This week we share the inspiring tale of Ms. Kayla Billington, a pediatric and neonatal critical care nurse who met a young boy with tetralogy of Fallot named Wavamuno Patrick in Uganda while working for an NGO hospital. Ms. Billington tells the story of meeting Patrick and struggling to save his life and how this simple relationship of love and caring led her to help many in Uganda with congenital heart disease. Ms. Billington speaks of partnering with Professor R. Krishna Kumar of the Amrita Institute and, in today's episode, both Ms. Billington and Dr. Kumar share the inspiring tale of how they have worked together to help save the lives of children from Uganda at Amrita. Prepare to be amazed by their tale.
