Doctors have concluded that the twins got the disease when they where born as no one else in the world has ever had this disease.
The disease can be transmitted if the twins have a baby, but it is unlikely as this is a progressive disease.Doctors do not yet Know how long this disease will last

It is unclear what will happen next , but the disease is slowly getting worse as they’re muscle continue to deteriorate. when the twins where 4 the symptoms where hardly seen, but when they turn 9 they needed support like walking sticks and wheel chairs, having trouble doing simple tasks like writing and eating.
