Review for Huntington's Disease Society of America, Inc., New York, NY, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

My childhood friend got married and had two children. Years into the marriage, her husband was diagnosed and has been getting worse continually - he cannot be the dad to their two young children he wanted to be and can't participate in their lives normally due to his Huntington's. Now the youngest child has been diagnosed. Families like theirs need attention to be paid to organizations such as HDSA in order to help them cope and help to find a cure. I know HDSA has been one of the pillars that has kept them going and I thank them for being a support system for them. It's such a little talked about disease that has such devastating effects.
