ALL PROCEEDS FROM BWO's JANUARY SHOW, SHOWDOWN, TO BENEFIT "LET THEM BE LITTLE X2"
We at BWO are excited to be working with a very special organization on January 21st. Please take a few minutes to read about a very special organization that we at Bodyslam Wrestling Organization are proud to exclusively support in our January outing, Showdown.
Let Them Be Little X2 is a special trust set up for the Leider family and their two boys Jason, 4, and Justin, 2. Both Jason and Justin suffer from an incredibly rare genetic disease called Hunter's Syndrome, (or MPS-2, Mucopolysaccharidoses-2), a disease which renders the body's cells unable to dispose of waste products as cells normally do in order to remain productive within the body. A child stricken with Hunter's Syndrome has cells that store an abnormal amount of waste, which causes irreparable damage to the child's brain and every other system in his body. In the United States, only 330 children have this condition. In New Jersey, there are 6. 2 of them are Jason and Justin Leider.
The presence of Hunter's Syndrome renders most children unable to walk or function normally by the age of 12, and very few children affected live over the age of 15. The Leider Family request to all of you reading is simple: They want their children to enjoy being young. They want to make their lives with this painful, crippling condition as happy as possible for the brief time they have.
Our hearts go out to the Leider family, and we intend to put on a stellar show on January 21st, and we want all of you to be there to lend your support. Every dollar taken in will go to the Leider Family to assist them in pursuing treatment, recreation, and whatever else they require to have a memorable life with their boys.
