"Basically, it's pediatric ALS and Parkinson's combined. It's the worst-case outcome that we could have," said Aiden's mother, Dana Steiner. Experts say there are fewer than 300 children living with the illness worldwide. Aiden's parents believe he is the only known case in Southern California. He suffered through unexplained falls, balance problems and a misdiagnosis of autism until he was diagnosed last year. "Because of this later onset and…...
