Our thoughts are with all his loved ones
A man with his 'full life ahead of him' has died from a rare disease that 'nobody has ever survived'. Jason Tolson, 30, died on New Year's Day after a battle with Anti-MDA5 Dermatomyositis, a systemic autoimmune disease which targets the lungs and causes muscle weakness.
"He was pretty quiet but had a heart of gold and would go out of his way to help you. Jason was making plans for when he came out because he couldn't wait to get out of hospital and go to TGI Fridays for a double rack of ribs. But obviously that never happened." His best friend James Evans, 33, who worked with Jason at a DPD warehouse, paid tribute to Jason and said his death has made him realise 'we take life for granted'. James said: "I was just in shock because I was celebrating New Years with my family and I got a phone call saying he had passed away.
"Jason was the type of person that would treat you like family, regardless of who you are. When we first met, he just welcomed me with open arms and was always smiling.
