'He didn’t walk in [the hospital], we carried him in, unable to walk and very weak in his legs. And two weeks later he ran out.'
A mom's mission to make other parents aware of a rare illness that afflicted her son is being credited by another mom with helping to save the life of her own child.
It was in Houston, nearly one week after his first symptoms emerged, that Braden was diagnosed with AFM, a condition that affects the nervous system, specifically the area of the spinal cord called gray matter, which causes the muscles and reflexes in the body to become weak, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention .
Since Braden's diagnosis two years ago, Scott has shared his story on Facebook in hopes of raising awareness of AFM. Last month, Cardone's 2-year-old son Corbin caught a cold and then showed signs of weakness, struggling to stand up in his crib. "He didn’t walk in [the hospital], we carried him in, unable to walk and very weak in his legs," said Cardone."And two weeks later he ran out [of the hospital]."
