A 20-YEAR-OLD man has a rare genetic disorder which makes him age faster. Harry Crowther, from Mirfield, West Yorkshire, was diagnosed with Atypical Progeria Syndrome (Non-Classical Progeria) when he was seven years old. The disease means that he ages prematurely and therefore suffers with similar ailments to elderly people, such as arthritis. Harry’s case is unique - he is the only known male in the world diagnosed with this form of progeria.
