Blind dad: 'Parents should talk to me, not about me'

A dad who lost his sight six years ago has told BBC Radio 5 Live that taking his two-year-old son to playgroups can be "difficult".

Former University College Hospital doctor Amit Patel uses a guide dog called Kika.

Amit told 5 Live’s Nihal Arthnayake that he sometimes overhears other parents talking about him, “they forget I can hear all this,” he said.
