At age 23, Jean Stevens was diagnosed with the rare disease Scleroderma, which affects the body's ability to produce the collagen needed to give the skin elasticity. Without collagen, facial features become transfixed, joints stiffen and eventually the body's vital organs can eventually harden. Jean faced the disease with the vibrancy and determination that was more than admirable -- it was inspirational. Yet a positive attitude wasn't enough to deflect the onslaught of yet another disease, this time cancer. The Story of Jean is a remarkable story about an equally remarkable woman afflicted with more than her share of trials. But Jean also considered herself blessed with more than her share of friends. With no family to stand with her, Jean's friends became her adopted family, her support...friends who stayed with her to the very end of her journey. |

Interesting & educational. by K. Vanaria  3 Stars

I felt this documentary ended in a rather hurried way. Otherwise, this is a good resource for those who would like to learn more about scleroderma.
As a hospice volunteer, I found this DVD quite informative and have donated it to our hospice library.
