BBC disability affairs correspondent Peter White talks to disabled people who have bucked the odds and achieved outstanding success in a variety of fields. He talks to TV director and documentary-maker, Emma Bowler, about how Kniest Syndrome affected her decision to become a mother.

Emma's first thought was, 'How will I cope with a 'normal' baby?'.
