Publisher's Summary
Xeroderma Pigmentosum, commonly known as XP, is a genetic mutation with a number of implications. People with XP can't tolerate sunlight. It diminishes the body's resistance to UV waves. It can be life threatening. People with XP have to be completely covered up before they go out, and even inside they live with curtains drawn. The disorder also creates a bubble around the person with XP, their family and friends. Often isolated, even in school, their connection to the world is tenuous. Today, that isolation is breaking down. Producer Marti Covington reports on how schools, families and technology are helping people with this rare disorder connect with the world.
