Wee Jamie’s Journey

13 of us will be running the Edinburgh marathon in May in support of one of our friends little boys who has DMD.

Jamie is a 3 year old boy from Dunfermline with a disease called DUCHENNE MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY.

DMD is a muscle wasting disease which effects all muscles in the body including lungs heart and brain. Most children are wheel chair bound between 8-10 years old and would deteriorate infront of your eyes , with the average life expectancy of mid 20s. Jamies family are having to raise £60,000 per year to travel to South America for infusions which will hopefully keep Jamie strong . The treatment is 3 times per year and something wee jamie and his family will need to continue to do untill there hopefully is a cure .

We would really appreciate any donations you can give to this cause to help wee Jamie and his family. All donations will go directly to the family to fund the treatment.

Those running will be,
