What a brave family this is..the first non-anonymous person , a 30yr old who donating her body for medical research...such an incredible moving story and respectfully done..and to think this just started with blurred vision and visit to the Optician..always say your eyesight is precious...

Should add ..its not for the faint-hearted but a family member who had a secondary cancer behind the eye which was inoperable & spread to the brain...this documentary explained a lot of what she went thru and we were unaware -am in awe of this family..

I’ll watch later if it’s on catch up although I get too emotional watching stuff like this. Sounds a very courageous lady.

We have just watched this. The recording failed, so we watched on Catch Up. I wasn't sure if I would be able to sit through the programme, but it was very well done.
So courageous of the young woman to donate her body for research.

What an amazingly brave young woman. Lovely family all round and what a sacrifice they have made to help others who become ill with this horrible disease. Thank you Toni!
