Thanks
for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I have
chosen to support The Huntington's Disease Association as my father-in-law
suffered from it and his father too. As it is a hereditary disorder there is a
50% chance of Jules (my husband) developing it (and potentially our children
too).
HD is a
terminal, hereditary disorder of the central nervous system with no cure as of yet.
It usually develops in adulthood and can cause a very wide range of symptoms,
it affects both men and women. There is ongoing research into treatment and
prevention.
The
Huntington's Disease Association exists to support people affected by the
disease and to provide information and advice to professionals whose task it is
to support Huntington's disease families. For more information please visit
http://www.hda.org.uk
Please
help me to reach my target.
