My uncle Jack and I both have a neuromuscular disease called mitochondrial disease (specifically mito complex 1 deficiency). I also lost my great-uncle Frank to neuromuscular disease when I was younger. I've also lost some friends to NMD who I knew through local programs and support groups. So I asked my santa if he or she could donate to a charity that helps fund research for neuromuscular disease. For Christmas, I got a donation to the Muscular Dystrophy Association, and the knowledge that the money donated would help fund more research to help find cures and treatments for all the various forms of neuromuscular disease.
