When you are afflicted with the brittle bone disease, there is a big tendency for you to be depressed because it may lead to other different complications which can really worsen the problem. Sometimes, some people think it is the end of their lives because of all the possible things that may happen. However, this is not true. Just take a look at this teenager named Jack Binstead. For people affected by a Fosamax Femur Fracture Lawsuit situation, they may want to take inspiration from this boy, especially now that the link between Fosamax and esophageal cancer has been confirmed.

Jack Binstead is a teenage athlete who had brittle bone disease. He has outdone older contemporaries in a major sporting event during which he landed on the third spot. It was for 15-17 year-old boys who are wheelchair-bound. Basically, it is a wheelchair marathon. This kid is actually very interesting because, aside from being a paralympic hopeful, he also have an acting career. According to his parents, "This was a really big one for Jack. He is becoming a man and he is not a child anymore. He still beat so many of the older lot in his category. I am extremely proud of him."

Jack had been in a wheelchair ever since he was three years old and he has suffered more than 60 broken bones already. And the interesting thing about it is that when these broken bones heal, it patched up in a different position, which means that it can be a high risk for another fracture.

In the marathon that this kid won, the way to his award was not easy. He actually battled against the odds to win the London mini-marathon three times; last year he battled a broken hip to win the marathon in the 14 and under-age category. And in 2010, he won gold despite his racing through the pain of a broken hip and in 2008 he finished first with a broken leg.
