PART 1  |
BBC Iraq correspondent Andrew North takes a personal journey through pain. A few years ago, after reporting on the U.S. invasion of Iraq, Andrew became paralysed with a very painful, debilitating condition in which his immune system attacked the nerves across his body. Today, he has fully recovered. In this documentary, North looks at how power, or the lack of it, shapes an individual's experience of pain. |
