Thanks for taking the time to visit Our JustGiving page.
This is where I Can fundraise for our beautiful Tyler..
Its Tyler's Birthday on the 7th of October he's going to be 7 years old.
Tyler is now getting tired, he has a wheelchair now and Aaron and his mother Donna are still trying to cope.
We are trying to make his birthday a happy one while he is still walking..So heres the story.
In 2011 Tyler, aged 5, was diagnosed with the heart breaking Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.
This heartbreaking illness causes his muscles to weaken effecting his legs first of all then gradually all his muscles in his body including his heart and lungs. So by the age of 10 he'll be in a wheelchair full time and the average life expectancy is in the early 20's . There is currently no CURE!
Research is taking place but it's extremley under funded as it's a very rare disease which effects 1 in 3.600 boys. This charity put's every penny raised into the vital research of Duchenne to help find a cure for boys just like Tyler.
Aaron recently did an amazing fundraiser for my tylers chairty (A bike ride) He asked his friends their opinion. He never imagined in a million years the feed back he would get from them as they all said they would jump on board and take part with him. Aaron was overcome with emoition as they all want to help his little boy and others fight against this horrible disease.
On May the 26th AARON and a group of friends are took part in a bike ride from Manchester to Liverpool a 50+mile journey.this raised £1645 for Duchenne now.
Please kindly donate to a worthy cause and beat this before its too late.
