9:31 am
use a value. for them that he that i need. to find a mobile phone signal if you have to travel twenty or even forty kilometers through the tundra to the nearest settlement. sometimes of an eye to family has to travel deep into the tundra where there's no contact at all. they have to take a position fix regularly as a possibility that the doctor will have to be taken to hospital grows stronger by the hour. mikhail sent his youngest son to relay the coordinates. so you can say yes the ambulance receiving. an air ambulance missed the location it was but it got the words you know boy serious river below the middle reach. but the flight of a no to family is crisper. another day
9:32 am
a break his wife has just given birth in another part of the month. if i didn't you tell me your surname. because you will never miss it from there you don't forget to take flashlights blankets are going to use ready. did you get the upset trickle kit yeah it's ready. i think what. can you please check if you'll fly to get patients ok. and you think. ok we all coming to you today but we also have to visit another woman who's giving ok let's go. each sortie is an intense experience and alice flight costs almost four thousand dollars so taking an aircraft out to assist only one patient before returning to base is not a cost effective exercise that's why the doctors always plan the routine consultation with the pilots after finding out in advance who else might need their
9:33 am
help on the way that's going on where they believe it will be seven we've got six so far. any changes to the planned route will depend on the weather deep in the tundra it can change as often as every half hour. when we take off we can never be sure that we're coming back and. we think everything is very carefully of course and never let ourselves get into panic. the air ambulances first stop the helicopter lands near a baby girl was born just a few hours ago. oh never let yourself think ok give me the baby girl it's a girl let's get one twenty five over a sufficiently good yes that's right three kilos she's

9:35 am
normal people that once a woman called us because she had a fever. we were approaching she said her contractions had started it was her ninth child so i decided to take her to the base to get the medicine she needed for besides you can always do with an actual pair of hands and we are talking about only a few minutes and as soon as we landed should give birth to the child or. as i know whenever an air ambulance workers like to help someone it's always a noble undertaking. there are heart attack there is a pediatrician she used to work in a town hospital but quit her job after deciding that as a native new needs she needed to return and be close to nature and her ancestral traditions. no matter how far these indigenous northern people may travel. there's always something that draws them back to their homeland you need to
