Flippin channels I came across this progeria special on TLC. I did a report on this little girl named Haylee that had it. That was back during my sophomore year of high school for my genetics class. There was also a little boy who had the disease. He passed a few years ago, it actually touched me some considering this children typically have some of the best personality because they know that they will not live long so they actually take the steps to "live life to the fullest" I'm glad to see that there has been a lot of progress within the research program to help fix the chromosome in which is changed to cause progeria (pre-mature) aging. Things like this often hold my interest.
