It was a fine-looking, murky and drizzly Sunday morning at Stoney Creek Park where all family and friends assembled for the MDA Walk-A-Thon. We had our registrations, fruits and a taste of all sorts of discussions ranging from Troy schools - future of U.S. automotive industry – the insurgence of Toyotas - marathons and so on.
Amidst this, drives-in the energetic, vigorous and vivacious boy with a placid smile of innocence, virtuousness and purity. I have been in contact with this boy (Rohit) and his parents (Ravi and Minti) since the last seven years and seen them nurture the eternal path of this MD syndrome. Besides the trauma Kapur family has been going thru due to this MD of there son, one distinctive attribute which stands-out in this family is the commitment, pledge, passion and the optimism they have shown in the last few years.
Kapurs have been very diligently supporting the Muscular Dystrophy Administration (MDA), a voluntary health agency — a dedicated partnership between scientists and concerned citizens aimed at conquering neuromuscular diseases that affect more than a million Americans.
MDA combats neuromuscular diseases through programs of worldwide research, comprehensive medical and community services, and far-reaching professional and public health education.
For the benefit of everyone who are new to this, please read on Muscular Dystrophy and support this cause.
Last but not the least, GO Kapurs!!! HE is there with you.
