My heart and soul.
The reason why I started this company.
I started my business fall of 2024 what started off as a holistic deep dive for my son and his diagnosis turned into sharing my passion, experience, knowledge and most of all sharing holistic healing from within.
Ever wondered why World Duchenne Awareness Day is celebrated on the 7th of September annually?
Imagine a pearl necklace with 79 pearls and the necklace breaks. This is what happens on the dystrophin gene. There is a duplication or deletion somewhere along the gene.
Mason my son and Jason my late brother has a a rare variant called “duplication” of Exons 50-55 (only about 5-10%) of DMD patients have this variant (duplicates)
Therefore the protein is missing and cannot do its job which is to produce dystrophin to keep rebuilding the muscles and to keep them healthy.
The dystrophin gene, which is affected in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), contains 79 exons.
These exons are segments of the gene that provide instructions for building the dystrophin protein. Mutations, particularly deletions, within these exons can disrupt the production of functional dystrophin, leading to the symptoms of DMD
The dystrophin gene, located on the X chromosome, is the LARGEST known human gene, responsible for producing the protein dystrophin.
Mutations in this gene can lead to Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD), debilitating muscle-wasting diseases.
Dystrophin plays a crucial role in strengthening muscle fibers and protecting them from injury by connecting the cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix.
Thank you for sharing and helping us to raise awareness 🙏🏻
No, there is no cure yet but there will be one day🙌🏻
