Please meet the Greene family from California. We are so thrilled to have them join Unite For The Cure!
Why have the Greenes decided to unite for the cure?
Christy and Kenny Greene’s daughter, Sara Rose Greene, has SMA Type I. She is dependent on a ventilator to breathe and requires full time support with every bodily need and life activity. Over the years, support for the family to handle this horrific disease has come from Families of SMA and SMA Support. The Greenes would not be where they are today and their precious daughter would not have the quality of life she has without their support. In the past, they have participated in “Walk-n-Roll” events in Riverside, California to support Families of SMA. They are extremely excited about Dr. Keirstead and his SMA stem cell program and are proud to be part of Unite For The Cure to help raise the funds necessary to get this research and promising CURE to human clinical trials as quickly as possible. The Greene’s HOPE is in GOD and this SMA stem cell program. May the day come very soon that each baby born with SMA can have a much healthier and higher physical quality of life than those that are born with SMA today.

Welcome aboard Greene family! Another inspiring example of how this motivated, active SMA community isn’t going to let funding get in the way of giving Dr. Keirstead’s research a chance…
