Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Hayley Okines is like no other 13-year-old schoolgirl. Born with the rare genetic condition progeria, she ages eight times faster than the average person. In medical terms her body is like that of a 100-year-old woman. Yet she faces her condition with immense courage and a refreshing lack of self-pity. Hayley has been the face of Channel 5's critically acclaimed Extraordinary People series since she was just 4 years old. Her films have aired to audiences of 1.7 million. Hayley is a captivating personality and is currently filming her fifth documentary Hayley's Teenage Dream which will be broadcast on C5 in September. For the first time she will also narrate the documentary. Alison Stokes is a writer and journalist. A former Trinity Mirror features editor, she is the co-author of several inspirational memoirs including the international best-seller 'Old Before My Time' with Hayley Okines which was the subject of a Channel 5 Extraordinary People documentary; 'Running Free' with Kate Allatt and 'Worlds Beyond Words' which was published as part of the Quick Reads national literacy scheme.
