Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page: 

Some of you may know our son Oliver was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy when he was only 4 months old back in 2015. 

As you can see by the profile picture he's a handsome little pickle and at this point in time he is thriving and loving life.

Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy is a progressive muscle wasting disease, generally symptoms wont show until Oliver is around 3 years old. When simple tasks other children can do will become increasingly difficult for him.  He will struggle to walk, climb the stairs and lift heavier objects.

By the time Oliver is 11 years old,  he will be using  a wheelchair and he will eventually loose the ability to walk.  The disease effects all of his muscles, which ultimately leads to total paralysis and a short life expectancy.  

The disease is 100% fatal and there is NO cure.  

The money you donate will fund vital research into finding a cure which could help our son and other boys with the disease.

Every second is precious with our son Oliver.  

I am taking part in the RideLondon 100 to raise money for the Duchenne Research Breakthrough Fund.

Please donate to this charity thats very close to our hearts and make a difference to Oliver's life  and the other children who battle with this disease.

Thank you,

Paul.
