Lorenzo's Oil

I just finished watching the movie, "Lorenzo's Oil." A real story about a little boy, Lorenzo Odone, who acquired a genetic disease prior to his 6th birthday. It was heart-wrenching at times to see this little boy and his family suffer so. But they plodded on, never giving up hope or giving in to pressure from anyone. Always looking for a way to combat the disease. The story ended in 1992, with Lorenzo age 14 and waiting for a brain cell transplant. Here is a link about Lorenzo, his family and the disease: The Myelin Project
