Becki Stone is just 23. She has been working as a hairdresser in Leicestershire for several years, she owns her own salon and is generally a happy young woman. However, what sets her apart from you and I is she lives with a life-threatening illness..... and the life expectancy for Becki's generation is just 38 years old. Becki was born with Cystic Fibrosis - but is determined to live her life to the fullest ..... while raising as much awareness of her condition as possible. Our reporter Christian Hill has gone to meet Becki at her salon in Queniborough and she told him a bit more about her condition.
