Nas Campanella, a blind Australian journalist who has a genetic condition that means she cannot read Braille, tells Adrian about how she reads the news and her fight to get a job.

We speak to Nas Campanella, a blind Australian newsreader who broadcasts on Triple J in Sydney. She explains how she does it and how she overcame prejudice against her disability to get a job. Tim and Julie Haines talk to us about how they came within a "hair's breadth" of losing their children after Tim was reported to social services for leaving his two year old in the car for five minutes while he went to a chemist to buy calpol. And we hear from Robert Adams, who at 84 could be the world's oldest hockey player.
