When the COVID-19 pandemic reached our province, many surgeries and procedures were delayed to make sure hospitals had enough room for a potential surge in patients with the novel Coronavirus. Lindsay Forsyth-Brochu has a rare and potentially fatal form of pulmonary hypertension, which requires a double-lung transplant.

Lindsay joins Kristy Cameron on Ottawa Now. Listen to the interview here.
