Leo is an adorable 7 year old, full of fun, laughter and cuddles. To most, he still looks like a typical boy of his age but suffering from Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) means he is slowly losing a little more of his capability, mobility and stamina every day. He can't produce dystrophin, a protein needed to build muscles and as a result he will experience a progressive loss of function as every muscle in his body deteriorates. The condition is 100% fatal - most boys will be in a wheelchair full time by the age of 12 and die in their early twenties. The in-between part is pretty nasty as their ability to do everything is robbed from them due to paralysis and then heart and lung failure. There is currently no cure for DMD and no treatment but medical research is promising. Funding is desperately needed to further this research and seek a breakthrough that will allow boys like Leo to live life to their maximum potential, to do the things that every child ought to be able to take for granted and to give their families some hope for the future. Please give what you can to help us raise as much money as possible for Muscular Dystrophy UK's Duchenne Breakthrough Research Fund - your support is invaluable and greatly appreciated
