Progeria Awareness

Hey guys. So, you’ve heard me talk about Porphyria, the vampire disease, but have you heard of Progeria? This is a million times worse. Progeria, also known as reverse Benjamin Button Syndrome, is caused when the body ages rapidly, causing all the issues of severe old age very young. Most sufferers don’t live beyond their teen years.
