This is Fionn. At 3 years old, he was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), a fatal disease that attacks the muscles. Every time Fionn exercises or does any activity, his muscles don’t have the ability to heal themselves and grow. Over time, this will mean Fionn will no longer be able to climb the stairs, play football, or do so many of the things that he loves to do.
We want to make the next few years the best they can possibly be for Fionn. We are raising funds to adapt the house so he can freely use a power wheelchair, operate hoists to raise Fionn in and out of his chair, and all sorts of other appliances needed to support Fionn’s condition.
If you can, please donate through the link below. Every penny will go towards Fionn. And thank you, from all of us.
Maeve and Michael (and the kids)
