This happened to me and my family. My mother was diagnosed with HD and grandparents never had it. Turns out my mother was adopted and we were never told until after her diagnoses

My step grandchildren's mom just passed away from Huntington's disease this past summer. I am terrified that they may have this or pass tye gene to their children.

Asymptomatic means they didn't have the symptoms. You can gave the gene and not develop symptoms into later in life. Their are stories that people had the defected gene but didn't develop symptoms and then died of different causes such as an accident or heart attack. It does not skip generations. It can only be passed on my an affected parent.
If they are sisters... Why are their accents different? Maybe different mothers, and grew up in different countries? Just wondering. I'm glad they decided to tell their stories. Bless you both.
Yes, the one on the right studied English at university and now teaches English, she has an English accent almost when she speak in English. The other is very good at English as well though!
May god be with all those with Huntington’s Disease.
Do you not see the irony there man 😂

It seems like two sisters grown up in two different countries 😄 all the best and love possible girls.. ⭐
I was thinking that too!
I had a neighbor with HD. He is doing well. I am so happy for you both.

How is it possible that the grandparents were asymptomatic, but their father got it?
@lollopisemis this is somewhat true. You can read more on our website about how this may happen in one family. en.hdyo.org/you/articles/53
Thanks for the link! However I can't find an answer as to how this desease can skip one generation?
Initially posted a link to the wrong section. I updated to new section that has a little more info on the genetic risks.
