I am running Dublin City Marathon having been inspired to do so having heard the story of three brothers, Archie (11), and Twins George and Isaac (7). The boys have a muscle wasting disease called Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy which is terminal and has no cure or treatment....yet. We are trying to raise funds to find a cure and build a suitable home for the boys. Please give what you can, no matter how small. Everything makes a difference. Archie will be completing Dublin City Marathon next Sunday too, aided by members of Roscommon Harriers in his running buggy. He is a real hero and a great role model for his little brothers. Please support this very worthy cause. Thank you x
Archie, George and Issac are the 3 children of Paula and Padraic Naughton who live in Roscommon. On the 9th of November 2012 their lives & dreams were changed beyond comprehension. The dreams they had for their boys were changed forever. A diagnosis of Duchenne's Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is devastating. It is a 100% fatal, neuromuscular disease that affects 1 in every 3,500 boys and each year 20,000 children worldwide are born with DMD; 99% of these are boys. There are no words to describe h
