Hello, my name is Lena Jackson. I’m a mother of two children and a wife of 14 years. I’m also living with Limb Girdle muscular dystrophy.My father developed symptoms in 1990 which debilitated and prevented him from working. Eventually, in 2001, he lost the fight due to heart failure. Fast forward 30 years, my sister and I are are experiencing the same symptoms. My father was never diagnosed, but we learned what not to do medically through my father’s experience. Research has come a long way.
