  • My mother and baby sister suffers from this disease and I hate this with a passion. My brother and I dont have it, but I hear it can strike at any age...

  • um... No, your kids would have a zero percent chance of getting it unless you have kids with someone who has (or gets) MJD (aka SCA type 3). I hear your pain though man (well, to an extent) my mom died of MS, she had it for 18 years, and that was just a terrible period of my life (3-21). But your kids probably will not get it (you don't have the gene to pass, chances are you won't find someone with the gene to pass, so it'd have to be a random mutation... that's very unlikely to happen.)

  • I didn't know that this is a spinocerebellar ataxia (type 3)

  • My great grandmother had MJD and also my mom has MJD my dad no! My brother and i both dont have it (we were tested) i am only 17 and i wanted to know.. it was the most scarry thing and the longest time of my live but when the results came they were negative ,but my kids have a 75% chance in having it? now i dont know if i should even have kids? i know i am young but this disease has take'en over our family! i just hope one day they will find a cure maybe not in my time but one day.
