Michael Natan, 7, has a winning smile. His grin automatically makes you smile back. When you notice a second later that he is sitting in a wheelchair, you have to control yourself to stop your smile turning into a grimace of pity.
Michael Natan has a rare form of muscular dystrophy, a condition which if left untreated can be life threatening. His muscles grow weaker and weaker at an alarming rate. Recently, he has been confined to a wheelchair. Now his life is in grave danger.
His family is terrified of the future. What will be with their Michael Natan?
A revolutionary treatment that is only available out of state has proven effective at preventing further deterioration of this rare disease. If Michael Natan is treated as soon as possible it will save his life. The treatment will stop deterioration of his condition, and may even enable him to get out of the wheelchair. “We are pinning all of our hopes on receiving this treatment as soon as possible,” says Michael Natan’s mother in a moving video.
The treatment costs, and the costs of flights out of state and other expenses add up to an alarming $50,000. There is no way that the family will be able to save their son’s life on their own; an emergency fundraising campaign has been set up to cover the costs of the treatment. Help Michael Natan get lifesaving treatment before it’s too late. Make sure that his beautiful smile never leaves his face.
