Gus is a happy, carefree six year old. He loves
animals; his career goal is to be a "puppy veterinarian in Mexico." Gus
has an older sister and brother. He loves to swim. He eats
more fruit than any kid we've ever seen. Gus adores his school, he
loves to color, and he has always loved music...
...and Gus has Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, the number one
genetic killer of children in the world.

Gus can't wait until his next kindergarten
field trip. He can't wait until later this month when we'll go
sledding in the backyard. Gus can't wait until December
when we'll visit his grandparents for a week each, and everyday he can't
wait tomorrow when he'll go to school, see his friends and have a great day.
Gus has a lot to do in his life, and we're
determined to make sure he has time to do it all.
