"Haden's Heroes"
Haden Michael Gaunt was born August 15,2003. Named in honor of his father's beloved cousin, Aaron Michael Gaunt, (12/5/79 - 9/24/01).
Haden has been diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder called Hurler's Syndrome. Hurler's is referred to as a "storage disorder" in which his body lacks the necessary enzymes to dispose of unneeded cells. The wasted cells are stored in internal organs and brain. If not treated, Haden's life will be considerably shortened. Meanwhile his condition will progressively deteriorate to the point of respiratory and cardiac distress, bone deformities, severe pain and mental decline.
In order for Haden to receive enzyme replacement therapy, his parents, Nick and Brooke, drive him four hours (one- way) every other week to Cincinnati Children's Hospital as there is currently no treatment for Hurler's in Indiana. The infusion takes several hours each time. A bone marrow transplant is the only chance Haden has for survival and time is of the essence. A national search of the registry is currently underway to find a suitable donor. It is hopeful the transplant can be done in October. When that occurs, Haden will be hospitalized for several months in Cincinnati.
His parents must shoulder an overwhelming financial burden. Nick and Brooke are in dire need of moral and financial support. They live in Dunkirk, Indiana where Nick works at a small, non union manufacturing plant. Brooke works part-time in local nursing home. Brooke will stay by Haden's side through the week and Nick must try to visit with his family on the weekends. The trips to Cincinnati have drained on their savings, stressed their vehicles and compromised their jobs as well. There has been little good news for this young family.....
But there is HOPE for HADEN.
Portions of proceeds on merchandise, raffle tickets, and every ticket sold to the Witches Ball will go to this family that desperately needs support. Thanks to all of our sponsors and all who come in support of Haden Michael Gaunt.
