Titus Tough: Join the Fight to Cure MPS1

Titus Barrett-Weber is not just another statistic. He is a son, a brother, and a light in the lives of everyone who knows him. Diagnosed with MPS1 Hurler Syndrome, a progressive disorder that affects multiple organs and causes severe physical challenges and developmental delays, Titus’s journey has been anything but easy. At just 5 years old, he has faced chemo, a bone marrow transplant, lengthy hospital stays, countless therapies, and numerous medical challenges.

Despite the pain, Titus remains resilient. But without a cure, MPS1 will continue to steal precious time from his childhood. For Titus and every child like him, every day matters in the fight against this disease.

What is MPS1 Hurler Syndrome?

MPS1 Hurler Syndrome is a rare genetic disorder caused by the body’s inability to break down specific sugar molecules, leading to a dangerous buildup in organs and tissues. This buildup results in severe physical and neurological symptoms, affecting a child’s ability to grow and develop properly. The impact is devastating, and without proper treatment, the disease progresses rapidly.
