Caleb's First Steps on Film

This even amazed us. Caleb took 2 steps in a row totally independently...and we got it on film!

Below is how Caleb is walking more and more these days.

Oh and lest we forget the dude is WALKING!!! Holy cow! What a cool video!; May 18, 2008 at 11:53 PM

The latest "Calebism"

12/17/11

Last weekend we were at the MDA Holiday party. He opened up the gift they gave him and it was a set of toy cars. He exclaimed, "Hot Wheels! They're so awesome 'cuz their wheels are so HOT!!!"

I can't believe I forgot to put this one on here!!! A couple of months ago we ended up in the ER with Caleb - he had the flu and just had a rough night. While we were there he saw a nurse pass by in the hallway. He stopped mid-sentence and said, "Whoa. She is so beau-tee-ful. I think I want to add her to my collection."

What is Ullrich Congenital Muscular Dystrophy?

In June of 2007 Caleb was diagnosed with Ullrich Congenital Muscular Dystrophy (UCMD). This is an extremely rare form of Muscular Dystrophy - to date there are only a few hundred documented cases worldwide. It is considered a slowly progressive and life-limiting form of MD.

This does not mean that hope is lost. There is new research being done for this disease, as well as many other neuromuscular disorders. In the last 4 years, Caleb's Crew has raised over $65,000 for the MDA and designated all funds to go towards research for UCMD.

Please click on the links below to find out more detailed information regarding UCMD, as well as to support the MDA and Cure CMD, two wonderful organizations.

Thank you,
