Actor Adam Pearson lives with NF1, a genetic condition that causes tumours to grow along the nerves. But by no means does he let his condition stop him from living the life he wants. He tackles issues around disability and discrimination with his signature crack-fire wit. Adam and his twin brother, Neil, have been on a mission to try to understand why they share the same genetic condition but look so different.
