A Pennsylvania man with a physical disability who has lived alone for the last four years is fighting to keep his independence and his home—with a little help from his community. David Murray, who was diagnosed with a rare form of muscular dystrophy known as dystol myopathy at age 22, has been struggling to keep up with the expenses of maintaining his handicapped-accessible home in Flourtown, Pennsylvania. And it gets to me and I’m thinking I don’t know what to do with that,” Murray, 60, told Fox 29. Those funds allowed Murray to remain inside his home—which his mother Catherine had built for him and his sister in 1987—and be somewhat independent. According to the GoFundMe page, Murray will be forced to move into a home-care facility if he can’t maintain his current residence.
