It is the early 1980s, Mrs Thatcher is ruling the country with an iron hand and Stevie is on a quest for change. Her marriage over, her job familiar. She decides to move as far away from her past as possible and start again in the middle of nowhere, alone with her small daughter and her pets. Stevie knew about nursing in towns. Patients were the same everywhere, she reasoned with herself as she drove over Sugar Loaf mountain at dawn and entered Wales. How wrong she was, how much she had to learn as she became a community nurse in rural Wales in the early 1980s. The patients presented the same problems as she was used to, but there were no support systems to help her, no nearby hospital or even access to a doctor.
