My parents were given a twelve year life expectancy for me at my diagnosis. There are many horrible stories out there about other families told the average life expectancy in a most insensitive way.
Averages can't account for differences in care and things like poverty and no medical facilities. No one should see them as a hard and fast deadline but as a guide. No one really knows their dying day and any one regardless of illness could die in the next second. That's why it's really good to live each day at a time and not take tomorrow as a given. Think positively because who knows a person with DMD may live to be the oldest ever!
Extract;
...With expert care from my family and some careful monitoring I had survived the averages so far....
