For a $1,000 I'd rather spend my money on researching HD rather than find out if I have it. I fear I have it like my father, or fear that it will one day surface. I don't want to know at this juncture in life (I'm 28) as I have enough problems battling ADHD and OCD. I pray for all families who suffer from HD. I'm tired of crying from these videos but am empowered to help with making people aware. Sometimes I laugh at the symptoms that I may face one day, not to be callous, but to be positive.

The highest interest of life, life requires that it spreads upward mercilessly life degenerating,

For example, for the right to live, die proudly when no longer possible to live proudly,

Death freely chosen, death at the time, with clarity and a joyful heart, accomplished in the midst of the family.

For the love of your life you will have longed for a free and conscious death, no chance and not surprisingly,

We did not hand in a way that would prevent us from being born, but we can repair
