Pete Nash is 38 years old.  He is a loving husband and father to 3 children.  For the last two years Pete has been unable to work, drive or do any of the sports he once loved.  In 2004 he was diagnosed with the potentially fatal Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM) of the brain, a condition which results in abnormally high blood pressure causing the veins to expand and malform into a tangled mass.  AVM affects 1 in every 10,000 people a year, and can lead to epileptic seizures, strokes, haemorrhaging, and possible death.  Pete already suffers from regular seizures and knows that basically his brain is a timebomb, waiting to explode.  However, despite the fact that a surgeon in Bristol is keen to provide the lifesaving operation Pete so desperately needs, his local Primary Care Trust have declined to fund it.  Instead Pete and his family must raise the £70,000 necessary to get the treatment privately.  In this emotional and absorbing documentary, we investigate why the NHS is denying a life-saving operation to such a young and otherwise fit Father of Three, a man who has paid taxes all his life and is now asking the NHS for help. We follow Pete’s campaign as he fights for the right to live.   With exclusive access, interviews and emotional video diary footage..
