The boys and I have taken to watching old movies once a week. We have watched such films as "Field of Dreams, "Rudy", and many more today we watched "Lorenzo's Oil". I remember watching his many years ago and I remember crying then, not only for the movie content but for all the people that have been, are, and will be effected by ALD. After the movie the boys and I googled Michael Odone only to find out that he passed away this past May....he was 30.
The film not only educates us all about the medical aspects of this disease but it also shows the power of parents love. If you haven't seen it, you should. Doctors aren't always right...sometimes they need a little help too.
