In 2023, Baby Lukie was diagnosed with a rare, neurodevelopment disorder called ZTTK. Discovered only in 2016, there are no known cures or treatments.At 2 years old, Lukie’s journey is filled with immense hurdles. He relies on a feeding tube and has yet to crawl, walk, or speak... Despite these obstacles, he amazes us with resilience, joy, and courage every day.
🧪We are racing against the clock to work with dedicated scientists, and the ZTTK SON-Shine Foundation to develop a cure for Lukie and other ZTTK patients.
💰 To raise awareness and funds for research, we have organized a 5K for ZTTK Walk during the ZTTK Awareness Month in September! Join us!
