Last year, seven-year-old Jack was diagnosed with hereditary spastic paraplegia type four (SPG4), a disease that affects less than 0.01 per cent of the population.

Anna and Richard join Patricia Boal to talk about the progression of SPG4 and their response to it as well as the outpouring of community support and how more folks can get involved.
