Picking Up The Pieces

Yair & Yael: Traumatic Pelvic Injury

Listen on

Episode notes

Myleene Klass meets Yair, who was involved in a serious road collision, and his wife Yael. Together they explain what it’s like for both patients and their carers to lose their sense of identity, how best to cope with the practicalities of planning family life, and why honest communication plays such a big part in keeping a couple together during particularly trying months.

Picking Up The Pieces is brought to you by London’s Air Ambulance Charity. Although all the stories in this series begin with the advanced medical trauma team caring for people on the roadside, Picking Up The Pieces asks what happens when patients and their loved ones return home and have to adjust to lives that have changed beyond recognition.

We would like to thank The Gerald Micklem Charitable Trust and the City of London Corporation’s Charity, City Bridge Trust, for generously funding the production of this podcast series.
