The Man Who Had Minutes To Live - Sky Real Lives , United Kingdom
2008 - Cameraperson/Editor
Pete Nash, 38, is a loving husband and father. In 2004 he was diagnosed with a potentially fatal arteriovenous malformation of the brain, a condition which results in abnormally high blood pressure, causing the veins to expand and malform into a tangled mass.

Already suffering from regular seizures, Pete knew that he was living on borrowed time. But when his Primary Care Trust declined to fund the £75,000 operation to save him, he was forced to take matters into his own hands. This documentary follows Pete's progress, as he raises funds and fights for his right to life.
