About this work
Description
A documentary update on Hayley Okines, now 6 years old, who has progeria, a rare ageing disease. We follow Hayley in aspects of her daily life such as going to school, hospital visits, and various meetings with occupational therapists and other health professionals. We also see Hayley visit her first children's hospice. This documentary focuses less on the medical aspects of progeria than its predecessor and emphasis is on the way in which a very young child is coming to terms with terminal illness. It is a moving and intimate profile.
