What is Cure Duchenne?
Well I honestly had not heard of it before this year. I was shocked to find out that it is the MOST COMMON muscle disorder for kids. One in every 3,500 males born is afflicted with the disease. Nearly 20,000 boys are living with the disease in the United States alone, and many will not survive their teenage years. The disorder knows no ethnic or social boundaries.And there is NO CURE! How can this be so common and yet so few know about it?
That is horrible and we must change this!
Thank you for this inspiring post and for introducing us to this common disorder. I would not have even read this post if it were not for entering a giveaway that you are sponsoring and I am glad to have the task of commenting on a non-giveaway post for the giveaway because I was introduced to this disease and your cause. I already voted for Team Duchenne and shared it on my wall for others to see. I will do my best to educate others as to this condition in the future and appreciate your post. Thanks again!
