Response Blog to Darknightxv1

Recently (about 5 minutes ago) I read Darknightxv1's blog on duchene muscular dystrophy, another genetic disorder. This one affects the muscles, and it is caused because of missing genes that are needed to make proteins, which are needed to build and maintain healthy muscles. Unfortunately, there is no treatment for this disorder, either. The male population is more vulnerable to it. This disorder makes me feel that I am very lucky not to have this disorder, because if I had it, I would not be able to play baseball, my favorite thing to do. It also makes me feel sad and bad for the unfortunate people who have this genetic disorder.
