Re: either run or die! A 8 year old boy practising Triathlon
although such news sounds frustrating, Jake didn't give up, and he chose to fight the disease with all his strength. To this end he even completed the triathlon. Jake's dream is to become the next Aristall Brownlee. Alistair Brownlee, MBE, a triathlon of the British Ironman, won the two gold medal of the men's Iron Triathlon in the 2012 and 2016 Olympic Games, the only two Olympic champion of the project. Maruska, the mother of
Jake, said, "Triathlon makes Jake healthy and energetic for him, and is very good for him, and this gives him the opportunity to socialize with other small partners." Now he has a normal life, he goes to school and drums, but he is very careful not to let himself fall ill. Just a little cold can have serious effects. Every week he will take part in the three training of the Malta youth Triathlon Association, which is like his second home. Jake was diagnosed with ROHHAD in 2015, a disease caused by hypothalamic dysfunction, insufficiency of lung ventilation and autonomic nervous disorder, which directly led to the rapid growth of his body weight.
