Cure44

In 2019, our son Nathan was diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder called Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.  DMD mostly effects boys due to the gene that makes a protein called dystrophin being broken. This protein normally keeps muscles strong and protects them from injury.  In Nathan's case, he is missing a gene called Exon 44.

Children with DMD have a hard time standing up, walking, and climbing stairs. Many eventually need wheelchairs to get around. They can also have heart and lung problems.
