Episode 6 -- David Hilmers

David Hilmers flew four Space Shuttle flights, including the very first one after the Challenger accident, but it's what he's done since leaving NASA that might very well be his crowning achievement. Now a physician, David has made countless trips overseas for disaster relief and medical research. His work in North Korea is perhaps most intriguing, given the current political climate between that nation and the United States.

Do NOT miss this episode!

SHOW NOTES:

*David's incredible story of racing Hurricane Harvey back home to Houston from North Korea, and the flooding he encountered when he got there.

*What sparked David's passion for international medicine?

*Another good question ... what keeps David going?

*Not even David can remember all the places he's served overseas!

*Hear how David deals with the risk factor.

*North Korea ... from David's perspective as a physician.

*Want to know how YOU can help? David has some suggestions.

NEXT EPISODE:
