they told the bbc‘s victoria derbyshire about how they deal with his condition on a day—to—day basis.that can make him better. if we were going to court to either end care or to leave him how he is, we know that's not a life for the long—term, but it is having something out there which can, you know, improve him and give him a better quality of life and hopefully make him better is the reason why we're still sitting here fighting now. in terms of what the specialists at great 0rmond street were saying they could do for him, what sort of things were they looking at? at what point did it come clear that they weren't going to be able to treat him? there isn't much they can do for hondrial depletion syndrome. they told us no treatment, no cure. so they have given him vitamins and stuff which can boost the mitochondria he has. but he has very little so it doesn't do very much. that is all they could give him. which is when you began to look around to see if there was anything out there. if there is something there, i'll find it. what did you find? there was another mitochondrial syndrome t
