Ronald Gould is a federal judge on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in Seattle, one rung below the U.S. Supreme Court. At 79, he shoulders a full caseload despite living with progressive multiple sclerosis.

LaPook also talks with one of Gould's former law clerks, Karla Gilbride, an attorney who has been blind since birth.
