Doctors at Boston Children’s Hospital in the US where Antonis, the child suffering from the rare degenerative disease Spinal Muscular Atrophy type 1, had undergone a new gene therapy, are satisfied with his response to the treatment.
Antonis’ mother said that her son is feeling well and expresses her gratitude to the people of Cyprus for all their love, prayers and wishes in yesterday’s post on Facebook.
