Coping with a Rapid-Aging Disease

Tiffany Wedekind is an artist and professional candlemaker living in Columbus, Ohio. That in itself is a testimony to her resilience because Tiffany is also one of the world's oldest-known survivors of progeria, a rapid-aging disease that typically takes its sufferers by the time they're teenagers.
