Bournemouth woman 'slowly turning to stone'

An East Dorset woman says she's relieved to get an eventual diagnosis of her condition - despite it being an incurable disease which means she's medically 'turning into stone'.

Georgina Foster, 30, was diagnosed with Scleroderma, just over a year ago.

It affects around 19.000 people in the UK and results in hard, thickened areas of skin and sometimes problems with internal organs and blood vessels.

Georgina says she's sharing her story to inspire others with chronic illnesses.
