ROSS PROCEDURE: Lucy's story

After being diagnosed with a heart condition since just after birth, Lucy explains how she's coped with the tremendous physical and psychological challenges faced along the way. In this episode, Rob Underwood from the BHF talks to Lucy about her treatment journey from that very early age, which included undergoing the 'Ross Procedure'. She talks openly about the support she's received, along with her future hopes and aspirations, both from a health perspective and career-wise.
