Living with DMD

There's a temptation to call people who have DMD, 'DMD boys' or 'DMD girls'. I feel that is all backwards because you give the condition pre-emenence over the person. Surely we are a boy/girl/man/woman with DMD. It's good to see the person before the disease.

Sometimes even I slip up and say DMD person but I try very hard not too, because living with a stereotype hanging over you can belittle you.
DMD kid can instantly bring connotations of average life expectancies, not walking by a certain age and so on. Duchenne's doesn't effect every person living with it exactly the same, there can be big differences in all the DMD variables.

Extract; ...I’m Ian Griffiths from South Wales. This book is a story of my life so far up to the age of twenty five years. I live with and suffer from the ill effects of DMD....

Extract;
...When I was about 18 months old my mother noticed I wasn’t moving around like I should have been, my sisters could run rings around me. I was often bumping into things and holding on to furniture whilst walking. My mother was obviously concerned, so she contacted the health visitor and our family doctor...

Foreword

I’m Ian Griffiths from South Wales. This book is a story of my life so far up to the age of twenty five years. I live with and suffer from the ill effects of DMD which stands for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. It is a severe muscle wasting disease and a life limiting terminal illness. It won’t kill you in six months in the traditional sense of ‘terminal’, but it’s far crueller than that, it steals every muscle in your body first and then kills you, anywhere up to the age of thirty. There have been cases of men living past that into their forties and fifties but only with drastic interventions such as ventilators and tracheotomies, more on this can be found by reading on.
I hope to cover a few things in this book, from a history of my childhood years to a more detailed history from sixteen years onwards and finally onto my current problems and triumphs. At times things I write may make you smile or may make you pause and think about the seriousness of life with this devastating disease. I really hope there will be a cure but currently for us supposedly ‘older’ guys with DMD (over twenty one), there seems very little hope. If I don’t see a cure in my lifetime, I hope my campaigning helps in some way bring it about for future generations, so another child won’t have to see their body wither and die before their time.
