No he was never cured but with Lorenzos oil the disease stopped but his mind was severly damaged and he died a day after his 31st birthday
The most common type of ALD (adrenoleukodystrophy) is X-linked ALD. Than means that the gene for ALD is on the X chromosome. Because boys have only one X chromosome, if it has the ALD gene on it they will have the disease. Girls have two X chromosomes, so, in order to get ALD both of their X chromosomes would have to have an ALD gene. That would mean that both her father and her mother would have to have an ALD gene. Because males with ALD die before they can have children this would not happen. So girls don't get this type of ALD. There are other, more rare types of ALD that affect both boys and girls. So, all in all, fewer girls have ALD
yes but why would people have heeroin that is just dumb
i guess so
Yes, Barrett's esophagus can be cured. The first step though is to always visit your doctor if you suspect you have Barrett's esophagus. See the related link for further information.

Lorenzo's oil is a medicine for ald
Well, ALD is a very rare disease which is VERY dangerous. There is a movie on it called "Lorenzo's Oil". There are treatments but no cure.
The child's name was Santiago de San Agustin. He was cured of a serious illness after his mother prayed to San Lorenzo Ruiz for his intercession.
bc they tried using just olive oil and it didnt work so they researched other types of oils and mixed them together and it help treat lorenzo's ALD...i think
Lorenzo's Oil is based on the true story of Lorenzo Odone. He was diagnosed with ALD, Adrenoleukodystrophy when he was 7. Genetic testing was done. The miraculous oil does not work on patients who are already ill.
Lorenzo oil was special because it was the only thing that helped to slow down ALD. The oil was founded by a couple frustrated about their son's condition and no one being able to help them.
Hi the real Lorenzo died 30th may 2008 one day after his 30th birthday. =================== I am pretty sure Lorenzo s illness is ALD. adrenoleukodystrophy. Has it been renamed? Pardon my typing please, my apostrphe key is not working.
First of all why is this in Justin Bieber? Anyways, yes, it is possible for a girl to have ALD. Originally the disease only affected boys, but because of new treatments these boys are living into puberty. This means that they could possibly impregnate a female carrier of ALD. If they were to have a daughter, then their daughter would have a 50% chance of having ALD.
The diet was ineffective in stopping the disease's progression and instead accelerated it. Since Lorenzo's body was deprived of food with a certain type of molecule in them his body created the molecules itself to make up for the deficit.
It has lost its myelin sheath (clothes) so it can no longer be used to send messages from the brain to other parts of the body.
