"Are You A Carrier?"
This was the cornerstone piece of my senior project. This booklet informs young women about Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and tells them how they can help to end this disease. I have two brothers with Duchenne’s and I carry the disease. Seeing the effects that it has on them and on my family, I didn’t want to pass that on to my offspring. I decided that I will adopt or use a different reproductive option to have children one day. All the components of this project call them to respond in a similar way so that this disease can be ended.
