"Hi Angela,
Simon has a Revo brand with pediatric seat. It goes really well on pavement, grass, etc, but does tend to shake pretty bad on a rough gravel road. Because the wheels are small, it can get stuck on a gravel path if there are bigger rocks,…"

Dawn Dillon said… - Thank you for the email. Mansfield isn't too far away. Perhaps we could meet some time and introduce the boys. My son, Luke, is 9 and was doing really well, but recently has seemed to degenerate a bit. Brings all the old emotions back from finding out the diagnosis....I sure hope the brink on which we are standing for better treatment and possible cure will soon be crossed. God bless...

Please let me know if I can be of help. Your family is bsolutely beautiful! I think the good news is that Childrens and Mass General will be doing trials. You might register on www.duchenneconnect.org. It provides the ability to search for information and connects you to clinical trials. Once trials are posted, you will have the opportunity to read details and make decisions about participation.
Sincerely,
Pat

Kathy said… - Thanks for the info! We are seeing Dr. Kang at Childrens. We really like him because he is so nice and is also doing some clinical trials. But, we have heard about MASS Gen. and the Jett foundation. Is it possible to go to both? Not sure how all of this works yet.

Eileen DeLong said… - Hi Cindy,
One of my boys is Calvin also. He is 12 and I have another boy Jared 9. They both have deletion 3-7. We don't live far from you.
I saw your boy is having trouble with reading. Both my boys struggled. Calvin seemed to finally get better around 3rd grade. Jared is still having trouble and he is in the 4th grade. Do you have an EIP for him yet? It has really helped with Jared. He gets special reading and writting help. We just try read with them everynight after stretches.
