Hello everyone! My names Brendan and I have Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. Thrilled to Give, is using the money raised to go towards Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy. PPMD raises funds for research towards Muscular Dystrophy. So if you can make it to the event that'd be fantastic, it'd help Kids & Adults like myself.
You're probably wondering, what is Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy? DMD leads to muscle wasting which gets worse over time. The symptoms include progressive weakness and loss of Skeletal & Heart muscle. Go towards the link & please donate for this great cause.

Here is some information about Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy!!
1.) DMD symptom onset is in early childhood, usually between ages 2 and 3. The disease primarily affects boys, but in rare cases it can affect girls.
2.)first affecting the proximal muscles (those close to the core of the body) and later affecting the distal limb muscles (those close to the extremities). Usually, the lower external muscles are affected before the upper external muscles. The affected child might have difficulty jumping, running, and walking.
3.) Other symptoms include enlargement of the calves, a waddling gait, and lumbar lordosis (an inward curve of the spine). Later on, the heart and respiratory muscles are affected as well. Progressive weakness and scoliosis result in impaired pulmonary function, which can eventually cause acute respiratory failure.
WHAT CAUSES DUCHENNE MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY?
researchers identified a particular gene on the X chromosome that, when flawed (mutated), leads to DMD. In 1987, the protein associated with this gene was identified and named dystrophin. Lack of the dystrophin protein in muscle cells causes them to be fragile and easily damaged.
DMD has an X-linked recessive inheritance pattern and is passed on by the mother, who is referred to as a carrier.

If you can please help by donating towards the Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy! They help with research towards DMD! Let's end this horrible disease. Go to this link if you want to donate. If you can't please share the link to the website on your Facebook, Twitter, Instagram. Educate your friends and family about Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. It's time to get DMD known. Thanks
