Video Description

Joe Boon is turning 30. It’s a milestone for anyone, but particularly for Joe and his family, who carry a rare genetic and degenerative condition that carries a life expectancy of just 37. Three out of five siblings - including Joe - have Friedreich's Ataxia, which gradually attacks the neuromuscular system. Not diagnosed until their teens and early 20s, the family have battled to cope with the implications of the disease - each one handling it differently.
