Each of us has experienced a moment that altered the course of our life for ever – quite often it’s to do with our health or career. After 18 months of training, former nurse Laura, for instance, is taking her final test before becoming a train driver, while Carol, who was once a concert violinist, is undergoing surgery that will hopefully restore her hearing. They’re two of the four people in the first programme of this daily series (future ones see a couple hoping to become foster parents and a man hearing whether his cancer has returned) and, of course, it’s an emotional ride.
