Dr Arthur Fournier was working at a field hospital in Haiti in the aftermath of the earthquake when he defied the authorities by evacuating an injured baby - starting a sequence of events that was to save the young girl's life.

The baby girl was on the verge of death when she was brought to the hospital after surviving for five days in the rubble of her home.

The volunteer medical team - led by Dr Arthur Fournier - knew her only hope of survival was to be airlifted to an intensive care hospital in the United States.

But the US government had banned earthquake victims being flown to the country.

Dr Fournier ignored the ban and raced to the airport in the hope he would find a plane leaving.

He only had a 15 minute window to get back to the hospital and get baby Jenny on the next departing plane.

He somehow succeeded and Jenny landed safely in Miami. She was given the expert care she needed, and has now finally been reunited with her parents - 12 weeks after the earthquake struck.

Dr Fournier spoke to Matthew Bannister and described how he managed to save the baby girl's life.
