If i could  cure any disease i would be mitochondrial disease, my sister has this disease and when she was born the doctors said she would never live past 3 but she is 9 years old now.
-caused by dysfunctional mitochondria
-its inherited
-no cure
-1 in 4000 children have it
- there is really not many ways to help,other than to donate to researchers
