Eat My Gold Michael Phelps, Says Swimming Gold Medalist Lochte

Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
Making people aware of this horrible disease is what is needed. We lost a son to this disease. We hope and pray that no other family will lose a child to this disease. After living with it....I am convinced this is the WORST disease there is on the planet for young boys/men. It took our son 15 years to get from being a "regular" little boy to a quadraplegic that was totally dependent. Despite the physical issues these kids maintain an awesome drive and will to live. This disease needs to be stopped.
Bless you Ryan.
A True Role Model
Ryan I am so proud of the way you have taken on the responsibility of being a true role model for not just aspiring children, MD victims, but for all people striving to reach goals, never giving up and doing it with a smile. I think Ryan Lochte has a lot more to offer the World than his swimming talent and I can tell we are going to find out!!
I don't think Lochte will beat Phelps. He had his chance in Beijing and Phelps beat him by very comfortable margins. Even with so many races Phelps is better than anyone on the planet. Lochte already reached his peak in the sport since Phelps and him are almost the same age. Phelps is younger. Lochte will not get better. Phelps already proved that he is the best swimmer ever. I think Lochte is a very good swimmer but not as great as Phelps. He beat Piersol which is very good. and by the way his underwater kick is not better than Phelps.
We need more people like you ryan
I have twin sons both afflicted with duchennes. My thanks goes out to others who care join in the fight against this disease. I thank Ryan for being a part of the fight. I must also say how great Pat furlong is, she is so dedicated and a hero in my eyes. I have found that people who have no family member or ffied with this disease, yet they get involved in the fight. I thankyou for that, and once again thankyou Ryan
DMD/BMD Awareness
Ryan, Thank you for getting awareness recognized for my 13 year old and ALL our boys! Congratulations on all your achievements and good luck in the future!
Ryan Lochte
I have Becker, and I have lived with it for 23 years. It is not fun. I am also glad Ryan is doing this. He is a much needed voice. To those of you that want to learn and help, please visit www.parentprojectmd.org
The bottom line is that Duchenne MD is 100% fatal. We are going to change that.
Rock on Mr. Lochte
