Our Son’s Fight Against DMD – Help Us Get Life-Saving Surger

Our son was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) when he was 6 years old. Since that diagnosis, his ability to run — and later even to walk — has gradually weakened. Now, he can barely walk short distances; after only 20–30 meters he becomes exhausted and may fall. Because of the high risk of falls and fractures, my spouse and I must constantly watch over him. This process has been extremely challenging and exhausting for both him and us.

Unfortunately, this surgery is not available in our home country. We have found a specialist doctor in Dubai who can perform the treatment, but the surgery and medical care are extremely expensive. Moreover, we have only one year to raise the necessary funds to seize this opportunity. It is impossible for us to cover these costs on our own.

That is why we are in urgent need of your financial and moral support. Every contribution will bring our son one step closer to the treatment and surgery he needs and give him a better chance at life. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers, and help us spread the word.
