Help for Hayden: Benefit to Provide Transportation for Local 14-Year-Old with Terminal Disease
JERSEYVILLE - For the first five years of his life, Hayden Eberlin Brown was a normal little kid. Then he forgot how to walk. Hayden was diagnosed with metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD), a terminal disease with progressive neurological decline. Now at age 14, he can’t walk, see, talk or eat. But he can hear and feel, and he needs to get to his doctor appointments. His family is hosting a benefit to purchase a van with a lift so Hayden’s mother can transport him to appointments.
