DO WATCH & PLEASE SHARE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE! Baby Aryan's parents urge the community to help as the baby was diagnosed with TYPE 1 SPINAL MUSCULAR ATROPHY (SMA).

SMA is a genetic disease which takes away one's ability to eat, breathe and walk as it affects the motor nerve cells of the spinal cord which may make it impossible for him to survive to the age of 2.

There is a treatment available called ZOLGENSMA which is the most expensive drug in the world at this time it costs 2.1 million dollars USD (2.8 Million CAD).

Aryan needs to get Zolgensma before he is 2 years old or it will be too late.
