Aubrey James Scott, affectionately known as A.J., was an active boy at age 4 until he began falling on a regular basis. He would get knots on his forehead from those falls.Jerel and Pam Scott, A.J.’s parents, knew something wasn’t right. That was when A.J.’s pre-K teacher, Helen Martin, recommended that A.J. see a physician for tests.“The doctor ran a series of mobility tests and concluded that A.J. possibly had some form of muscular dystrophy,” said Pam Scott, A.J.’s mother and a tech liaison at Mill Creek Elementary School.“After inconclusive blood tests, the doctor performed a muscle biopsy on A.J. and determined that he had Duchenne’s syndrome, a form of MD that is life-threatening,” she said.
