“In His hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind.” ~ Job 12:10

It has been seven years since DBA became part of our vocabulary. Our son’s diagnosis brought confusion, apprehension and despair. The discovery of DBAF is a stroke of serendipity. While even more tears were shed, these are now mingled with knowledge, understanding and, more significantly, hope. It will be through research that our son will be able to secure a brighter future.

While I know the road will not always be without struggle, we will continue to learn more through research and the determination of the amazing DBA community.

This DBA family is the greatest group of people that I never wanted to have to know, but blessed that I do. The support from the DBA Foundation is immeasurable.

Having twin boys with DBA makes you appreciate everything in life more on a daily basis.

As parents it is difficult to watch our son go through so much (IVs, pokes, transfusions, ER visits, steriod side effects, tests, ect.), but the resilience and toughness Elton shows each day is what gets us through.
