Ok, I’ll take the bait. It seems others have chimed in who know people with DMD.

I’m actually someone who has DMD. And I’ve lost numerous friends from the disease.

If you have no idea what DMD is, you more than likely have your face too far up your rear end to see the light of day. I suppose the choice is in your prerogative. You gained 4 hits on your silly little celebrity blog, afterall. I hope you enjoy the ad revenue while you are burning in your special level of hell. Perhaps it might be wise to use your perfectly able hands to type a few characters into Google before you lose any more of your audience in the future.

To those who say they are parents of children with DMD – do whatever you can to support your children. There is still hope. There is a dictum in print journalism that goes along the lines of “If it bleeds, it leads.” That’s all the author is attempting. Have hope, and keep your head up. Ignore bastards like this.

Wow – the ignorance of some people totally amazes me. That is the great thing about Google it is very easy to figure these things out.
I can tell you that Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy is quit real and is a horrible thing to watch your child go through. It is a fatal genetic disorder that has no cure. My 9 year old son was diagnosed with DMD 3 years ago and it is hard to imagine anything worse than watching your son slowly lose his ability to walk and having to try to explain to him why he can’t walk and run like his friends.
Anybody who was as unlucky as I was to stumble upon this website and would like to know if Duchenne MD is real (and how to pronounce it) please check out these links.

If David Beckham is a dick, you are a bigger one. I’m watching my beautiful 4 year old boy slowly die of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. It is quite possibly the worst disease I could think of him getting.

Your blog makes me sick.

No Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy can not be walked off I should know, my three brothers were diagnosed with it, and I am a carrier for the disease. Meaning when I have a child, my son will have the disease, and my daughter will be a carrier for it. Around age 7 it usually becomes difficult for them to walk, mainly becomes their muscles are weakening. Every muscle in their bodies slowly deteriorates. Because of this they almost always develop congestive heart failure( which is what my eldest brother passed away from). Their lungs become incredible weak and have severe breathing problems. Most are lucky to live to the age of 20 years old. Also for future reference it would be nice to get a little background on something before you make a joke of it.

David Beckham is a really nice guy by all accounts. Sometimes these things can get way out of wack. I’m sure he would do his best to accommodate the people if it comes down to it.

Leave him alone.
