Saskatoon boy with rare skin condition’s medical supplies stolen from doorstep

A Saskatoon family is looking for answers after their son’s medical supplies were stolen from their front porch Tuesday afternoon.

In a post on Facebook Adam Leptich, the father of Leo who has a rare genetic skin condition called ‘Epidermolysis bullosa,’ posted video footage from the incident along with screenshots of the suspects.

Epidermolysis bullosa, more commonly known as E.B., is a condition that makes the skin so fragile that it can tear or blister at the slightest touch.

Children born with the condition are often referred to as “Butterfly Children,” because their skin seems as fragile as a butterfly wing.

The medical supplies stolen include bandages “essential to keeping him healthy.”

Saskatoon Police confirmed they’ve received an official report on the incident.
