Kaylee Halko, family raise money for Progeria Research Foundation

We've followed the story of Monclova's Kaylee Halko since not long after her diagnosis with Progeria, a disease that ages children about 10 times faster than normal. Friday night, Kaylee sits down for a visit with ABC's Barbara Walters. 

Barbara Walters story about Kaylee originally aired several months ago, but ABC'S "20/20" has decided to re-run the segment, which has been nominated for an Emmy. You can see it Friday, July 29 at 10pm on 13abc. 

We also want to let you know about a couple of upcoming fundraisers. Kaylee and her family will be raising money for the Progeria Research Foundation Saturday, August 20 at the Maumee Festival. There will be train rides and a kids game area with all the money going to PRF. 

And mark your calendar for Kaylee's Course Race for Progeria. This year it's Saturday, October 8 in Monclova.
