CureDuchenne reposted this
Jeg har fått en del spørsmål om hvordan filmen om Ibelin har blitt mottatt de første dagene etter at den ble lagt ut på Netflix fredag. Det har vært fullstendig overhvelmende. I World of Warcraft har hundrevis av spillere besøkt graven til Ibelin, tent lys og delt refleksjoner og minner. Det er en stadig strøm av spillere som kommer til graven og det rapporteres at det har vært avatarer ved graven 24/7 siden fredag. #Fellesskap og #kjærlighet. Vi får en stadig strøm av meldinger fra personer som har sett filmen. Fra Brisbane (Australia) til San Fransisco (USA) med Asia og Europa i midten. Mennesker som deler både sine opplevelser og situasjoner i egne liv. #Åpenhet og #inkludering. Enkeltpersoner legger ut små videosnutter på YouTube og sosiale medier av hvordan de ser ut når de ser filmen. Og ulike mediekanaler over hele verden skriver om opplevelsen slik som Aftenposten gjorde i Norge i dag. #Tårerforhåp. Når det gjelder seertall på Netflix så gikk Ibelin til topps som den mest sette film i Norge allerede første dagen og den har ligget der siden. I Sverige, Danmark og Finland er den den nest mest sette filmen etter bare fire dager og i Island nr3. I tillegg er den på topp 10 listen i Tyskland, Belgia, Estland, Latvia og Sveits - etter kun fire dager. Dette blir spennende å følge i dagene og ukene som kommer. #Respekt. I dag kunngjorde også organisasjonen «Cinema Eye» de 16 nominerte filmene til årets publikumspris i verden. Prisen er en av de mest attraktive publikumspriser som deles ut i verden. Norge har aldri vunnet denne prisen og i år er «The Remarkable Life of Ibelin» en av de 16 nominerte(!). Det er filmpublikum over hele verden (du og jeg) som stemmer fram vinnerne som blir kunngjort i New York 9. januar 2025. Første globale avstemningsrunde varer fra i dag og til og med lørdag. Alle kan stemme og i fjor vant filmen «People’s President» med litt over 150.000 stemmer. Skulle du ha lyst til å støtte Ibelin i konkurransen om årets publikumspris og derigjennom gjøre filmen enda mer kjent for publikum over hele verden så KAN du det ved å klikke deg inn på linken under og stemme på «The Remarkable Life of Ibelin». Du kan også dele denne posten med venner og bekjente. Jeg skal holde dere oppdatert om resultatene. #Fellesskap og #Ibelin 🦊.

We have profound gratitude to Robert Steen for sharing his story, Mats’ journey as “Ibelin” in World of Warcraft®, and for helping raise awareness about Duchenne and CureDuchenne.

Fellesskap, inkludering, respekt og kjærlighet. Mats var født med Duchenne muskeldystrofi, en sjelden muskelsykdom som gradvis tar fra deg all din muskelkraft, alle dine funksjoner og til slutt også ditt liv. Mats ble 25 år. Det forskes for å finne en kur på denne forferdelige sykdommen, men pr i dag har vi ingen måte å helbrede Duchenne på. Derfor bør forskningen intensiveres. Word of Warcraft (WoW) er verdens største nettbaserte rollespill og har vært spilt av over 100 millioner personer siden det ble lansert i 2004. Mats spilte WoW gjennom avataren «Ibelin». Ibelin var privatdetektiv og ble pga sin røde hestehale ofte kalt «the Fox». Reven fulgte Mats og Ibelin gjennom hele hans liv og står også som en liten bronsjestatue på hans gravstøtter (både på Vestre gravlund i Oslo og i Elwynn Forest i WoW). På fredag (25/10-24) da Netflix slapp filmen om Ibelin i 190 land slapp også WoW en revunge med Sherlock Holmes hatt i spillet. Reven heter (selvfølgelig) «Reven» og kommer med en ryggsekk han kan sove i dekorert med norsk rosemaling. «Reven» kan kjøpes av spillere for USD 20 som går uavkortet til verdens ledende ideelle organisasjon for forskning på å finne en endelig kur for Duchenne (CureDuchenne.org). På denne måten kan Mats og Ibelin sin historie være med på å bidra til forskningen som en dag kommer til å finne løsningen på Duchenne muskeldystrofi. Se videoen om «Reven» her. Fellesskap, inkludering, respekt og kjærlighet.

Thank you @Hawken for sharing! This is a great read!!
This is huge. One of the largest video games in the world is releasing a new in-game pet. 100% of the proceeds will help find a cure for Duchenne muscular dystrophy. I'm having to pinch myself as a lifelong gamer with this news. You can read more about the story that brought us here below, but here is a link to learn more: https://lnkd.in/gYtbNVnd As many of you know I live with Duchenne muscular dystrophy and I'm actively involved in the foundation my parents started CureDuchenne. We met a family about two years ago in Norway who had lost their son Mats to Duchenne. They were working on a documentary about his life and how he helped so many people through the online community on World of Warcraft. We saw it in the early stages, and now it has been bought by Netflix and released today Oct. 25. It's called "The Remarkable Life of Ibelin." I encourage everyone to watch it. It's not just about Duchenne, it's about how to life a meaningful life. This meeting and documentary inspired CureDuchenne to connect with Blizzard Entertainment and see how we might work together to help fundraise and find a solution to finally end Duchenne. A lot of gratitude goes to Mats parents Robert Steen and Trude Steen who decided to start this journey of honoring their son's legacy. That initial connection precipitated the creation of Reven, the new pet in World of Warcraft. It means "the fox" in Norwegian. It pays homage to Mats and his role playing of a private detective amongst his Starlight guildmates. The Reven Pack also comes with a little backpack for the cute fox to sleep in while you galavant around Azeroth, the fictional realm where World of Warcraft takes place. It's $20 and all proceeds go to CureDuchenne. It was actually designed by a Norwegian man whose name is also Mats. I don't believe their are any coincidences in life, and this case is no different. It's too long of a story to put all on a LinkedIn post, but it's quite amazing to see this come to fruition. Thank you to everyone involved, and especially my parents Paul Miller and Debra Miller for starting CureDuchenne when I was diagnosed and never giving up hope!

Pfizer recently provided this video updating the results from their Phase 3 micro-dystrophin gene therapy trial, CIFFREO, which were presented on October 12, 2024 at the World Muscle Society Conference in Prague. In this video, Francesco Muntoni, Chair of the CIFFREO trial steering committee, and Dan Levy, who leads DMD Clinical Research at Pfizer review the data--which showed no statistically significant improvements in individuals receiving the experimental micro-dystrophin gene therapy--and have a thoughtful discussion about the implications of the findings. While we’re disappointed with the results of the trial, we appreciate Pfizer’s continued transparency to share as much information as possible with the whole community.
