Ryan and his wife Deb were more than happy to have me write a piece, given that spreading the word about MPS II is one of their goals.

In case you need a refresher on some biology, enzymes are the chemical powerhouses of the body: they facilitate the chemical reactions which are so integral to the body\u2019s normal functioning. \u00a0The body depends on an extremely complex biochemical equilibrium, and when this is disrupted by a genetic disorder, the symptoms are often severe and debilitating. In Hunter Syndrome these symptoms can include (but are not limited to) heart disease, respiratory infections, liver enlargement, and central nervous system involvement can result in developmental delays. Patients with Hunter Syndrome often display a wide variety and combination of symptoms, but it is always progressive \u2013 that means, as the byproducts build up with age, the symptoms get worse. An Enzyme Replacement Therapy known as Elaprase is one way to treat the disease, but it is not a cure \u2013 it helps to manage the symptoms.

This was the third such event, and if you\u2019re in the area next year you should <em>definitely<\/em> consider dropping by. The goal is to raise enough money to fund a $40 000 research grant. When I first got there, Grizz Salzl, a friend of the Purcells and a coworker of Ryan&#8217;s, was giving a short speech.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">Grizz, inspired by a friend of his, came up with the idea to host the first &#8220;Poker for Trey&#8221; Poker Tournament to raise money for the MPS II fund. The Edgewater Casino provided the venue and waived their fees. Players in attendance were: Ivon Bartok, Louis Ferreira, Robert Finnegan, Tim Holtby (proxy for Carl Binder), Ken Kabatoff, Harey LaRoque, Lou Diamond Phillips, Chad Riley, Grizz Salzl, Mark Savela, Matt Simpson, Robin Smith, Roger Wells, Lawren Bancroft-Wilson, Kelly Whitfield, and Tio Zeviar. People who donated but were unable to attend were: John Zulinski, Ken Andersen, Mark Higham, Brian J. Smith, and Jamil Walker-Smith. As a result of &#8220;Poker for Trey&#8221;, Grizz presented a cheque to &#8220;Tacos for Trey&#8221; in the amount of $2,105.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\"><a title=\"Click to visit Trey Purcell &amp; MPS II website\" href=\"http:\/\/www.treypurcell.com\/blog\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13561\" src=\"http:\/\/wormholeriders.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Face-Painting.jpg\" alt=\"Face Painting\" width=\"576\" height=\"383\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Click to visit Trey Purcell &amp; MPS II website\" href=\"http:\/\/www.treypurcell.com\/blog\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13562\" src=\"http:\/\/wormholeriders.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Balloon.jpg\" alt=\"Balloon\" width=\"576\" height=\"383\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Click to visit Trey Purcell &amp; MPS II website\" href=\"http:\/\/www.treypurcell.com\/blog\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13573\" src=\"http:\/\/wormholeriders.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Minnie-Swinging.jpg\" alt=\"Minnie Swinging\" width=\"576\" height=\"383\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Click to visit Trey Purcell &amp; MPS II website\" href=\"http:\/\/www.treypurcell.com\/blog\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13574\" src=\"http:\/\/wormholeriders.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Spiderman-After.jpg\" alt=\"Spiderman After\" width=\"576\" height=\"383\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">There was face-painting and balloon twisting for the kids \u2013 all of whom looked like they were having a blast \u2013 as well as a raffle and silent auction for the grownups.

It is an amazing thing to see when an extended \u201cfamily\u201d of sorts pulls together to support one of their own.
