We have a little boy Diego, who is 5 with DMD and he takes Deflazacort (Calcort) - 12 mg daily. We just arrived to Disney in Orlando,Florida and realized that we left his medicine at home!!!!!! I understand he cannot be without Deflazacort more than 24 hours and Diego does not have medicine for tomorrow. By any chance, is your son using Deflazacort? If he is can we buy or borrow any from you?? We are willing to drive and go anywhere to get the medicine and we can replace within 10 days guaranteed. Sorry to bother you wiht this! but are trying to avoid major interruptions for the boys and extendended family due to this...
Thanks for your kind attention to this,
Leslie

Kevin,
My name is Brent and my son Braden was diagnosed in Dec 07, he was 3 1/2. The reason we found out he had DMD, was because of the falling, not talking. Now a year later he is in preschool and ahead of where they think he should be entering kindergarten. When was Ryan diagnosed? It is still hard for me 1 year later, hang in there. Brent

Welcome to PPMD. I have talked to your wife before on this site - I'm sure it was her as I recognise your gorgeous little boy Ryan
