Family Pages

Just because a child has BMD doesn't mean they cant have fun, play with friends etc. A disabled child's needs are the same as any child but with a few extra .The best thing to give a child is love and to be told they are special and wanted. I don't have any kids of my own but I hope this page will be helpful to those of you with families.

If you are interested the pictures below are of my brothers family none of which have BMD I used them as I have lots of pictures of them growing up.

Most families find that receiving the news that your son has been diagnosed with an incurable condition is a traumatic event. It can take years to come to terms with it and everything you hear only seems to makes things worse. Speaking to other families going through the same or have already gone through it can be a great help . Becker United was set up to help those with BMD, their families and carers and we hope we can become a great help in assisting families by offering information and putting you in touch with other families.

This section of the Website has been set up for families we include items sent in by members to share with other families "Connecting with your son" is a really good example and contains maybe the best information in this section. We also want to include stories of how families have learnt to cope when their son has Becker MD , Growing up with Becker is an article written by myself I wanted to share the things I went through in my life some of the things I am sure you will be able to relate to .See also "Living with Becker "from our main pages with members stories..
