I am a new member. My mom had Huntingtons Disease and she just died
two weeks ago today. She was 49 years old. I was diagnosed in 1998 at
the age of 23. I know that my mother was suffering and that she has
been sick for a long time. With something like this, it isn't a shock
when they go. It is sometimes a little difficult to look your future
in the face, though. I don't really have anyone to talk to about it.
Nobody really understands. I don't expect them to unless they have
grown up with this Disease as I have. I am glad that I found this
support group. I think that it is exactly what I have been needing.
