Story

<p>As you know our little brother has been diagnosed with Duchennes Muscular Dystrophy.</p> <p>We want to help support the Campaign to help find a cure that will work and give&nbsp;my little brother and other little boys the full life they deserve and&nbsp;to run and play just like most children.</p> <p>He is six years old, we have been told he can use steriods for two years which will help him till he is about 10 untill he can walk no more. The Steroids will help all his muscles keep stronger including his heart which is vital, he will now undergo lots of physiopherapy and heart scans and ECG's.</p> <p>Then we hope a cure or something will change all this for all the muscular Dystrophy sufferers.</p> <p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p> <p>Update -</p> <p>Leon has had his first heart scan and everything was good and is due another one next year.</p> <p>He has also been measured for his foot splints and wheelchair and is now undergoing Physiopherapy to help stretch his muscles which he must do twice a day.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
