"Thanks a lot for the links, Naomi. Our doctor does not think there is any added benefit of Deflazacort over prednisolone. He did recommend CoQ10 as well as ECGC I.e. tea catechin. I see you are giving your son 1000 mg/day of l-carnitine....I will…"

Oops. It's South Africa, not Australia, right? I'm a bit dim on my accents -- not to mention my memory.

Hi Maxine --How come the older I get the farther away Australia gets? Larry and I have kind of pulled back from attending PPMD conferences, but we remain as enthusaistic about and supportive of the organization as ever. We continue to want to know how our friends and their children are doing, so I"m glad you checked in. Love, M-Lou

Hey Maxine,

It was great to see you at the conference. Seeing old friends is one of my favorite things about the conference.

I hope all is well.

Take care,

Julie

Hello Maxine, Very briefly, I read your page about your son and he sounds so similar to my grandson! He is now 9 and we have decided to take him out of School.His Pre School teacher has offered to teach him "one on one". He has a wonderful vocab & general knowledge & is just "different'. (also has whopping outbursts when frustrated!) Like you, I feel that there is not much understanding or real hope offered in S.A. Please tell me if you know how we go about finding Ethans "deletions?" Regards, Lesley

Hi Maxine,
Icame upon your home page quite by accident & was so pleased & surprised to find someone else from S.A.! My grandson is 9 yrs old and presents as DMD. His exact condition is ? even though he had a muscle biopsy @ age 3. How do I find out about discovering his deletions? He goes to DR Lippert & Prof Rhodda.He is on pulmison, &has had heel cord surgery.My email address: lesley@boltcorp.co.za many thanks, Lesley Henderson
