Going on with my kid . Its so isolating. Imagine if you have a child and they cant ever go outside. Can you see that . Not to get morbid, but i could potentially die. Tonight an extraordinary look inside their world. Shes more adventurous at night. It was like, oh, i have two bodies. We do a lot together. Shielded from the sun. He jumps from shadow to shadow. Hes always on lookout for the next safe place. Now in the spotlight. Out of the shadows. Welcome to dateline. Im lester holt. They live by night. They have no choice. Imagine dawn being something to dread. Daylight being dangerous. Only a handful in a million children have disorders like these. Even a few minutes in the sun can can cause serious harm tonight youll meet some remarkable kids and their families who share their stories. Youll see they do have light in their lives. It just comes from within. Heres kate snow. Reporter most people would describe this day as beautiful. Clear, blue skies, blue sunlight. You could gaze out
Have slick conditions indeed. And the roads, very slick. The state patrol is warning that i25 is very slick near castle pines. Earlier, we rode with one of 86 cdot plows spreading chloride they said they were lucky to get ahead of the storm. This isnt bad. We have been able to keep up with it pretty well. We a jump on it, and we were able to make another round and scrape off what was there, drop the material, and its wet again. Russell, what problems are you seeing out there . Reporter well, eric, i must say we have seen Road Conditions deteriorate tremendously in the past hour, so at 4 00 and 5 00, we were conditions on the roadways, wet and slush, and once the sun went down, it got really slick out here. Were on i76 northeast of the city. And weve seen 5 to 6 spinouts in the 5 mile span from brighton and back to the denver metro area.

We also need a robust pipeline of discovery thatll lead to new drug candidates for all different kinds of infections. So the limited population idea and the streamlining of Clinical Trials which wouldnt just decrease the time frame, it also decreases the cost and the, you know, the number of people needed, so it would do a number of things, that is one thing that we can do at fda that we think would be beneficial and would be beneficial for patients, but its not going to fix this problem we have of investment.

But you know, you talk about using things outside their area of indication. We tend to think of the world in which we live.
