The daughter of Saddam Hussein's pilot on her work for women in conflict zones

ZAINAB SALBI
As the daughter of Saddam Hussein's personal pilot, Zainab Salbi grew up in his shadow. She tells us how she married her way out of Iraq, and went on to found "Women for Women International" which supports women in current and former conflict zones.

ADAM AND NEIL PEARSON

Adam describes what he went through as a child as his head became misshapen and enlarged. Neil tells us he's also been affected, but less obviously - with epilepsy and memory loss.
