Boy's controversial world-first treatment | Ballina Shire Advocate

 
Daisy Broadway knows there will always be people against what her and her partner Justin Ebbels are doing for their son Casper.
The Melbourne bub was enrolled in a controversial drug trial when he was months old and will receive daily injections until he's 18 and old enough to decide for himself if he wants to continue treatment.
The world-first treatment, led by the Murdoch Children's Research Institute, is allowing those with achondroplasia to grow at the same rate as their peers and possibly avoid surgery.
Daisy Broadway says they’re doing what they think is best for Casper’s health.
