Dana: The 8 Year Old Anorexic [Part 1] 24:44

[Part 1] Dana is eight years old. She is also anorexic. This week's Cutting Edge follows Dana as she embarks on an intensive 12-week programme at a specialist clinic, to examine why younger and younger children are developing eating disorders. Dr Dee Dawson, Medical Director of the Rhodes Farm Clinic, which treats young girls with eating disorders, says: "I'm in no doubt now that the average age is falling. We are seeing more eight, nine and 10-year-olds than we have ever seen before." But how will Dana cope, away from her family, as the youngest of 20 girls with eating disorders?

  • [Part 1] In March 2003 doctors at Calcutta's Institute of Child Health made an astonishing and ground-breaking medical discovery. Quite by accident they had unearthed the only family in the world known to be struck by more than one case of progeria, a rare and incurable genetic disease. There are currently only 48 known cases worldwide, all of them isolated and seemingly random. But the doctors in Calcutta were faced with a mother who had given birth to five affected children.

  • [Part 1] 25 years ago, Ian Waterman caught a virus that destroyed half his nervous system. He was left like a rag doll, with no sense of touch below the neck and no idea of where his limbs were unless he could see them.

What does his story reveal about the extraordinary capacities of the human brain?
