Description

The story of Juliana Wetmore, a five-year-old who suffers from Treacher Collins syndrome and was consequently born with a deformed face. Juliana has had 27 operations in an attempt to reconstruct her features as 60 per cent of her cranial bones were missing at birth. The programme charts the youngster's academic and social progress as she prepares to go to school.
