It slowly weakens the bodys muscles, deteriorating function of vital organs and ultimately - shortens their life. Although there are medical treatments that may help slow its progression, there is currently no cure. Defeat Duchenne Canada is the countrys only national charity dedicated to ending Duchenne muscular dystrophy. We have provided leadership in research, advocacy, and support since 1995. Well continue until a cure is found to ensure our boys can live long and active lives
