What started as some funny comments about @SQLSoldier doing an interpretive dance has rolled into a great initiative as additional support to the fundraising for my cousin Gunnar.

About my cousin …

When my cousin Gunnar was born, he was a lot like me, .. a cute little boy, having the world in front of him with many opportunities and big dreams coming along.

In every single way, Gunnar is like the little boy next doors, that wants to play, have fun, and live a careless and worry-free life.
Shorthly after Gunnar was born, he was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a recessive X-linked form of muscular dystrophy, affecting around 1 in 3,600 males, which results in muscle degeneration and eventual death.
