Parents can make a difference for their boys with Duchenne!
Tim Revell has been running marathons and hosting golf tournaments in Austin to raise money and awareness for Duchenne muscular dystrophy. His dedication received the attention of University of Texas head coach, Mack Brown and his wife Sally. Mack Brown so generously donated to CureDuchenne the $10,000 that he received from the Bobby Dodd Coach of the Year Award. Sally Brown hosted the “Caffeinate for the Cure” last Friday and has become a spokesperson for CureDuchenne in Austin.
Channel 8 was there to cover the event:

Tim and his wife Laura had never organized a fund raiser before their son was diagnosed with Duchenne. They didn’t let that stop them. I encourage all parents to join in raising money for research…start small and great things can happen. Our sons are worth the effort it takes and CureDuchenne will support you in getting started.
Daryl Parrish, father of another Austin boy with Duchenne is running this morning in the Boston Marathon for the CureDuchenne Crusaders.
