We want to thank The Hospital for Sick Children for saving my son and truly going above and beyond. We moved mountains together, and hopefully, the treatment we created for Michael will turn out to be a legacy for others with rare diseases, proving that nothing is impossible!

In 2022, 4-year-old Michael received an individual gene therapy at SickKids for #SPG50, an ultra-rare neurodegenerative condition. Today, #SKResearch shows Michael’s progress & the potential impact his clinical trial holds for genetic medicine.🧬 Read ➡️ bit.ly/3La4mBv

Thank you for allowing me to tell my story and to thank the hero’s that work at the NIH!

What an incredible story from Terry Pirovolakis, whose son’s journey started @CureSPG50 His tireless efforts to find a cure led them to a number of partners including @NINDSnews and ultimately the targeted gene therapy needed to help save his son. #research #NINDSnonprofitforum

Today on the #SickKidsVS Podcast: 5-year-old Michael is one of less than 100 people in the world with #SPG50, an ultrarare genetic disease. In 2022, a SickKids team dosed Michael with the first-ever #genetherapy in an unprecedented #clinicaltrial. Listen: bit.ly/42z5ghk

A research team including #NICHD scientists from @BonifacinoJuan’s lab has developed a potential #GeneTherapy for hereditary spastic paraplegia 50 (SPG50), a rare childhood-onset neurodegenerative disorder. bit.ly/41CRQAS #RareDisease @UTSWBrain @CureSPG50


Thanks to your incredible support, Michael was treated with the Gene Therapy that we were able to create. However, what you may not be aware of is that we used the funds raised to create two additional treatments for SPG50. Over the past 12 months, we ha… instagr.am/reel/CqRWmSXON…
