Summary The search for a cure for cancer is the greatest epic in the history of science. This episode follows the story of Sidney Farber, who introduced chemotherapy in the late 1940s, galvanising a full-scale national war on cancer. Fast-forward to the present where 14-month-old Olivia Blair is diagnosed with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, which spreads to her brain and spinal column. She and her parents struggle with the hardships, but now in full remission almost a year after her diagnosis, she is still on her journey to finish her three-year treatment plan
