ЧТО ПОСЛУЖИЛО ТОЛЧКОМ К СОЗДАНИЮ ВАШЕЙ ОРГАНИЗАЦИИ:
I, John C.Graybill II, established BL&L for two reasons. The first reason was to raise money for research. From 1995 until 2006 every year I’d go see my neurologist and he would tell me there isn’t any news in terms of a treatment. I wanted to change that. The second reason I established BL&L was to raise awareness through my videos. At the time there wasn’t anyone recording their progress of LGMD and there wasn’t anyone out there that I could connect with. By making videos I opened the door for others to connect with me and not feel alone. My videos are available on YouTube
КАКОВА МИССИЯ ВАШЕЙ ОРГАНИЗАЦИИ:
To support rigorous scientific research for LGMD2A and to educate others on the disease course, as recounted through my personal experience.
КАКИЕ УСЛУГИ ПРЕДОСТАВЛЯЕТ ВАША ОРГАНИЗАЦИЯ:
