Young at heart : the likes and life of a teenager with progeria

Okines, Hayley, 1997-2014
Books
The amazing and 'awkward' life of Britain's 'oldest' teenager Hayley Okines is just like any other 17-year-old: she loves clothes, shopping, TV and boy bands and hates getting up in the morning. But she has the rare genetic condition progeria, which means her body ages eight times faster than normal, giving her the body of a 126-year-old woman. Her positive attitude and infectious smile has charmed millions of people, through a series of TV documentaries. In 'Young at Heart', Hayley continues her unusual life story, which began with first memoir 'Old Before My Time'.
