Our Goal:

To Give Strength to Duchenne, believing that Strength is More Than Muscle™

Strength is…

• raising awareness

• funding life saving research

• teaching and sharing about TRUE Strength 

On February 9, 2017, our life was turned upside down when our youngest son Fritz, was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. As we digested such news, we found ourselves feeling weak and helpless. It was in those dark days of diagnosis, our community came alongside us and gave us strength. We experienced strength like no other, and it involved things like hugs, tears, prayers, hot meals, kind words, special notes; never physical muscle. In those extremely raw days of diagnosis we realized that the word strength needed redefined. Inspired and uplifted, our family created and clung to the phrase, ‘Strength Is More Than Muscle™.’ A diagnosis of Duchenne does mean Fritz’s muscle will not work like they should, but we want him, and the world to know, that he can be strong, we can be strong, people can be strong because….

STRENGTH IS MORE THAN MUSCLE™.
