Sam's Day

Yesterday our family went to an event called Sam's Day at North Park Mall in Dallas. The event is dedicated to raising money to help cure a disease called Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD). DMD a degenerative disease that will cause the muscles throughout one's body to break down over time. The event is named after one of our friends - Sam Killian. Sam is 11 and is a fun-loving kid inflicted with DMD.




When Sam was diagnosed with DMD, in 2005, his family (our friends, the Killians) looked for an organization that could help them make sense of this disease and hopefully help find better treatments and eventually a cure – they found Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy (PPMD). Sam's Day is a big event every year used to raise money for PPMD.

Here is Noelle with Sam.
