Glycogen Storage Disease is manageable if diagnosed, but possibly fatal and extremely dangerous with just one mistake or miscalculation. Parents and the children with this disease must undergo routine examinations, live life by a clock, and those with GSD must ingest cornstarch daily to survive.
The Children's Fund for Glycogen Storage Disease Research (www.curegsd.org) is extremely close to curing this disease, and is lacking only $5M before being able to start eliminating GSD from kids everywhere.
Could you imagine not being able to eat a chocolate bar or any sugared candy, ever? No bananas for you either! Instead, have some cornstarch and water, and a G-tube in your stomach! Life for GSD patients.
Until proper funding is met, please provide cornstarch vouchers to those with GSD!
