Another great episode. Thank you to Darren for sharing his story. I know he must get this a lot but how incredibly brave he is, especially as a child/ teenager. Having to deal with so much, especially that wrench from Great Ormond Street to a different hospital. And what a lovely story about Princess Diana! Looking forward to part 2.
