Anniversary

Six years ago on August 15th, my oldest Brad passed away. He was 22 years old. When he was diagnosed at age 5, this was devastating. All of your hopes and dreams for you child's future are smashed. You have no idea what to expect or what the future will hold for them or yourself. He was always a happy kid even dealing with this diagonosis. We tried to make his life happy and fulfill his dreams that we could. I had always told him if I could take the disease away and give it to myself I would, that was never his wish. But he was hoping that would find a way to cure or atleast be able to slow down the process. I love you, Brad. This disease called Muscular Dystropy (Duchenne) is a disabling disease, when you see the firemen out collecting with their boots on Labor Day weekend and the Jerry Lewis Labor Day telethon on Labor Day please donate to them. This will not help my boys who have already passed away at a young age, but the research could help to find a way to end this life shortening disease for other boys with this same disease..
