    Just lost my grandmother to it. My mom has it. I'm 22 years old, and 95 days clean from heroin, I don't know if I have it, but I know I must stay clean to care for my mom. Please keep my family in your prayers

    my nieces had Huntingtons and they gave them something to stop the movement. I am so grateful this Christmas I didn't get it. Best gift ever.Many in my family died from it. My prayers go out to those who are suffering from this disease. We all need to work to find a cure.

    I’ve take care of several people with this disease. I’ve always wondered why people with Huntington's disease decide to have children when this is hereditary. To each it’s own but I wldnt wish this on my worst enemy.

      A lot of people didn't know about the genetics of it until recently.Also, lots of people only show symptoms once their children have already grown up and had their kids. Also, you can do tests on the placenta to see if its passed on 50% chance with choice to abort at week 11-12 or do IVF to not pass it on.

      @hunterlepage หลายเดือนก่อน

      Did you even watch the video though? It's diagnosed in 30s-40s generally, by the time they have kids it's too late and the symptoms will start popping up after your kids are already born and have it. If their immediate family has it they should be tested for sure but I'm sure a lot of people don't know about it, don't understand it, and don't realize it's hereditary

    • @MollyKaren
      @MollyKaren 3 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      I know this was 2 years ago but there are actually many reasons! HD sometimes doesn't start presenting until people are in their 30s, and if they don't know that one of their parents had HD (they may have died when they were young, or left the family due to the emotional effects), they may have children without realising that they could pass it on. Often the first symptoms are emotional - anger and irritability - so there are cases where a couple has a child, then they end up separating due to this, with the partner who does not have HD never finding out that their child may have it.

      @@terisammon5180 I can…and Huntingtons disease should absolutely not be passed on if you know it runs in your family and you won’t get tested or you’ve tested positive. The disease can be eliminated in one generation…just one generation. It’s so horrible to watch someone with HD from beginning to end. There are ways now to have children that are HD free even if you tested positive and there are even funds set up to assist with the expense of it.

    My father was a great man. He watched his entire family die from this very disease, and it did him in as well. He was in the army and he was a great leader, he made sure he and his men got home to their families during the war is Iraq and Afghanistan. He died a little over a year ago, and I have unfortunately noticed that I have the very same symptoms of it...I can't remember anything as soon as I hear it or see it, I keep choking on words I am trying to say to my family, and I keep spassing out and having seizures in mid conversation. I don't know what to do. I miss my dad very much and if this really is what I have, at least I'll be with my father soon

To clarify there is no cure for huntington's disease or anyway to slow/stop it getting worse. I do hope they find more effective treatments in the future. Won't be in my lifetime but I hope they find a way.
