Join us for our annual sporting clay competition and live music to support rare disease research. Shotguns & Guitars is held at Defender Outdoors Clay Sports Ranch in Fort Worth, TX on October 11.Jax was diagnosed with a single gene defect in the MTRFR gene on October 30, 2014. The MTRFR gene mutation causes him to be non-verbal, fed through a feeding tube, affects his ability to walk and optic nerve atrophy which leads to blindness. It is caused by a defect in the function of mitochondria within the cells of the body.
Our goal is to slow the progression of this disease while working towards a cure for Jax and future generations. This fundraising event directly benefits gene therapy research which looks to be a promising life-extending treatment for Jax who is now 12.
