For people from all backgrounds, hospitals can be a scary and stressful experience. But for some young children, hospital is part of their daily routine…

The UK’s Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital has 1000 medics that treat an estimated 200,000 patients a year. The hospital’s 24 hour children’s A&E Department sees around 3,000 patients each month, from newborn to 16 years old. In this series, we follow the tremendous courage of some of these poor children as they suffer through scary procedures and face even scarier futures.

In episode six:

The star of episode one of Children’s Hospital, seven year old Jack Norfolk, is back. Today, Jack and his mum, Jeni Spilsbury, will meet surgeon Andrew Henry to find out if an operation to repair his hip has been a success. Jack suffers from a range of genetic diseases including poor eyesight caused by glaucoma. Later, he will visit an eye specialist to see if the eye drops he’s taking are working; if not he’ll have to undergo surgery, something that completely terrifies him, for the 23rd time in his short life.

In the ICU (intensive care unit) four year old Reuben is fighting for his life after being rushed in by his parents, Stephen and Nicola, five days ago. The doctors at Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital have discovered that Reuben’s heart is failing but they don’t know why. Meningitis and swine flu are quickly ruled out, but now begins an anxious waiting game for Stephen and Nicola, who stand helplessly by while the doctors battle against the clock to find out why Reuben’s body is shutting down.

Meanwhile, it’s another busy day in the RMCH’s dedicated children’s A&E Department: 12 year old Jordan has cut his leg playing on the ice and seven year old Altom has broken all three bones in his arm after a fall.
