My Beckers Story

Life with Becker MD | Exploring Life, Disability & Everything In Between!

Hi, I’m Brad and this is My Beckers Story

Welcome to my corner of the internet, where I share life with Becker MuscularDystrophy (BMD) - a rare, sometimes invisible disability. This isn’t the highlight reel. This is real life, told openly and honestly - no sugarcoating, no pretending. This is the place where I explore Life, Disability & Everything In Between!

I am also the author of Fighting Towards Victory, a book about my experiences growing up with Becker Muscular Dystrophy. I share the challenges I’ve faced along the way - from childhood bullying and employment struggles to devastating losses. But through it all, I keep showing up and fighting through every challenge that comes my way.

My mission is to show what living with a disability is actually like - not the watered-down or inspirational version, but the truth. If you appreciate honesty and authenticity, consider reading through my blog, picking up a copy of Fighting Towards Victory, and continuing to follow my journey on Instagram & YouTube!
Available in Canada, the USA, the UK, and more!

What Readers Are Saying

“Hi Brad. I was recently diagnosed with Muscular Dystrophy. I read your book and wanted to let you know that it made me feel a lot better about my diagnosis.”

“This book highlights the mental sharpness while facing the progression of muscle weakness from childhood to adulthood. What an honest and inspiring story through many challenges and finding positivity through it all.”

Celebrating 15 years of My Beckers Story!

It all started in 2010 with My Becker’s Story, my blog about life with Becker Muscular Dystrophy. A year later, I got involved in the Walk for Muscular Dystrophy, and in 2014, I founded Laps4MD and started Becker Awareness Week to help bring the community together and raise awareness. In 2023, I took the next step and wrote and self-published my book Fighting Towards Victory. I hope you grab a copy!

Fighting Towards Victory - Incredible read, highly recommend!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fighting Towards Victory is a powerful and uplifting look into life with Becker Muscular Dystrophy - not just the diagnosis, but the day-to-day strength, resilience, and humanity that come with it. After my own son was diagnosed with BMD I began meeting people in the community through online platforms.

Brad was-one of the first to quickly respond to my many questions. Without fail Brad kindlyshared his experiences and gave me so much hope and comfort. I was so happy he published his first book and I read it quickly! In his book he shares his journey from early childhood and diagnosis, through school challenges into adulthood, love, marriage, incredible loss and beyond, with a level of honesty and warmth that makes the story incredibly relatable and real.

What I appreciated most was the insight into the emotional and practical challenges of living with Becker muscular dystrophy - but also the humor, love, and positive perspective that shine through. It's not just about a condition; it's about a life well-lived and so much growth when faced each day with challenges many of us take for granted.

The updated version of the book includes even more stories and reflections, adding depth and making an already great read even more impactful! This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to better understanding of day to day life, overcoming challenges brought on by neuromuscular disease and anxiety or simply just to be inspired by someone who lives with grace, courage, and purpose and is fighting towards victory!

Highly recommend!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
