April 12 - Struggle street

Nick Chisholm's story is truly inspirational.The young Dunedin man was deep in a coma and on life support when he heard those around him saying that if he lived he would be so disabled he wouldn't want to.

Nick won the fight for his life but lives with physical and emotional pain everyday. He was told he would never walk and never even talk again, but there is nothing wrong with his brain - he is trapped inside a body that struggles to work.

But as Natalie Crook reports with grit, great determination and the love of his mates and family, Nick is proving everyone wrong.
