Summary:

An Alabama family puts their faith in a new frontier of medicine after their toddler becomes the first patient in the US to receive an experimental gene therapy treatment for a rare disease. Sequencing Hope examines the high stakes of altering genes and explores how far a family will go to save their child's life. The Hamlett family of Winfield, Alabama begins a journey of unknowns that uproots them from their close knit town in Northwest Alabama and transports them to a whirlwind of cutting-edge medical advancements underway in Minnesota. Sequencing Hope goes beyond the science to witness the profound impact of groundbreaking medical history on the life of a toddler who became the first patient in the United States to undergo this experimental gene therapy at M Health Fairview Masonic Children's Hospital in 2021.
