Young boy raises $1 million to help research best friend's rare disease

Most kids would do anything for their best friend and Dylan Siegel is no exception. The 8-year-old boy has raised $1 million to help research the rare disease afflicting his best friend.

Dylan's best friend Jonah Pournazarian is one of 500 children in the world suffering from glycogen storage disease type 1B, a liver disorder that has no cure.

Back when the boys were 6, Dylan wanted to help raise money to find a cure. His book, "Chocolate Bar" has sold nearly 25,000 copies in 60 countries and, as of this week, has raised $1 million.
