Meet the Evan’s
James, Veronica, Holly, a four year old and Max, the cute little guy in the picture above. They have 2 dogs rescued from the local animal shelter and have recently moved from the country into the “big city,” College Station Texas.
James is a Texas A&M graduate with an Engineering Degree. He currently works for an accident reconstruction company Veronica started working with James at the beginning of February this year so they could start saving money for medical bills.
Max Evans was born April 29, 2008. He was a healthy 8 lbs. 4 oz. and 20.5 in. long. Half-way through Veronica’s pregnancy she found out that she was a carrier of muscular dystrophy. She knew that little Max had a 50/50 chance of having it. Shortly after being born it was discovered that Max has Duchenne muscular dystrophy. The family is handling it well since they have been able to prepare for the possibility; although you can only prepare for news such as this so much. The only positive side to such a diagnosis is that Max will be delayed walking and crawling, but should not show too many symptoms until he is 3 or 4 years old.
James and Veronica have started researching physical and drug therapies available for MD patients. Currently Max is being scheduled to be seen by one of the foremost DMD doctors in the country, but the medical fees are exceptionally high. This website is being set up and run by friends of the Evans family to try to raise as much money as possible to help offset some of the costs of Max's care. We ask that everyone keep their family in their thoughts and prayers.
