Dawson is a sweet 2-month-old baby recently diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) type 2, a genetic disorder that affects the motor nerve cells in the spinal cord, leading to progressive muscle weakness and atrophy. SMA type 2 is a severe condition that significantly impacts mobility and respiratory function, requiring intensive medical care and regular treatments to manage symptoms and improve quality of life.

Dawson and his family make frequent trips to Rochester and Syracuse for treatment. These visits are crucial for his care but come with substantial emotional and financial burdens. The costs for Dawson's treatments are projected to exceed $2 million, a staggering amount that weighs heavily on his family's shoulders. These treatments are essential to give Dawson the best chance at a fuller, healthier life, but they are also a significant strain on the family's resources.

Support from generous donors can make a profound difference in Dawson's life. Financial contributions will help cover the enormous costs of his treatments, ease the stress of weekly hospital visits, and provide much-needed relief for his family. Dawson's parents are deeply grateful for any help they receive, knowing that it not only supports their son’s medical journey but also brings them hope and strength during this challenging time. With your support, Dawson can continue to spread his joy and resilience, lighting up the lives of everyone around him.
