Donate and make Nahorai Yosef happy
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a terminal genetic disease that mainly affects boys.
The disease begins to manifest itself in early childhood and leads to muscle weakness and the loss of the ability to walk.
Over time, the disease also affects the heart and respiratory muscles, the disease begins to erupt at the ages of 2-3 and progresses rapidly, when the children lose the ability to walk at the age of 12 on average.
The disease affects all the muscles of the body, including the muscles of the heart and lungs, and usually leads to premature death.
The boy Nahorai Yosef is one of the brave children fighting this disease. Nahorai is a lovely two-year-old boy who is unable to play and enjoy life like all his peers due to the disease that limits him at every stage of the day.
Already at his toddler age, he gets tired quickly and we are unable to run, jump or walk long distances. His family invests all their money and efforts in order to provide him with a good and happy life, knowing that a cure for the disease has not yet been found. However, there are treatments aimed at slowing down the progression of the disease and improving the quality of life for Nahorai and children in his condition.
These treatments include drugs such as steroids, physical exercises, treatment of breathing and heart problems, and many other treatments which the state does not cover and without which the condition of those suffering from the disease deteriorates significantly.
Every shekel you donate brings us closer to the goal - your donation will help him and other children like him to continue fighting, living and getting the best life that can be provided for them in light of their condition, and hopefully also find a treatment for the disease that will put an end to Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
We ask you to join us in this effort. Any donation, big or small, can help. Together, we can make Nehrai Yosef happy and give children like him a chance for a better life and help in the difficult fight against a disease, which is still defined as incurable.
