Cooper Jones Needs Your Help

Who is Cooper? He's the adorable 6 year old son of my friends Scott & Cathy Jones, and Cooper was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD). DMD affects about 15,000 boys in America right now, causing the afflicted to be in wheelchairs by their teens and usually allowing them to live only to their early 20s.

Please visit their site for Cooper, http://www.cooperscure.org and get involved. Raise money, spread awareness, whatever you can.

Scott & Cathy are really wonderful people and great parents. There is no history of this disease in their families and there is no known cure. Think of it as if it were happening to your own children.
