Description
Leap of faith explores the journey from diagnosis to landing and putting your health in the hands of the medical professionals.
The first figure in distress is at diagnosis. They are on their knees, isolated and looking over a cliff surrounded by water.
The second figure is standing and bravely taking that precarious leap into the hands of the medical professionals at the hospital.
The figures mid air are literally up in the air, hoping for the best outcome
The final figure lands safely in the hands where the best care will and has been given as the figure goes through the recommended course of action to get them healthy again.
