  • Today is the day! We head up to Seattle Children's Hospital for Mason's HIGHLY anticipated Elevidys Gene Therapy Infusion!
    What's Elevidys? Elevidys is a gene therapy from Sarepta. It's the first gene therapy FDA approved for pediatric patients (4-5 years old) with Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
    HUGE THANK YOU to Sarepta (Elevidys) and Seattle Children's Hospital!!!
    Hey! If we're meeting for the first time- We are the Bafus family, and we are starting this CZcams channel to give hope, document our journey, and to shine light on duchenne muscular dystrophy.
    For our first 7 days, we will be posting one video a day, documenting Mason's $3.2 million, once in a lifetime gene therapy.
    We are typically private people, just like you, but this disease has forced us more into the public, and that's ok. We've learned that this is not a disease that anyone can fight alone. So we decided to take to CZcams to help spread the message and raise awareness of this rare disease.
    You can follow us here on CZcams and on Instagram ‪@BafusFamily‬

    What a brave boy and brave parents! So sweet that he misses his brother! My son was diagnosed right before school started and turned 8 a couple months ago. I’m praying for your family and the rest of us in the muscular dystrophy community. God bless you guys!

    Hello, can you tell me how it feels now? How much did you spend? And is it made for all types of dystrophy or not?

    • @BafusFamily

      He's feeling great now! Our insurance approved this treatment but we do not know yet what we will pay out of pocket. This particular treatment is specific to Duchenne. Thanks!
