    Thank you, this was very interesting and informative. Although we have HD in our family Dr Lihari explained aspects of HD that previously I had not fully understood. It is very encouraging to see how much research and trials are ongoing. Like every family affected by HD we are in constant hope of a breakthrough that will stop HD in its tracks. Thank you for the work you are doing to help families affected by HD. ❤

    I was a carer to HD clients for many years. It's one of the worst diseases to be diagnosed with. So many sad stories and it's really important to talk about it so decisions can be made. One of those decisions is to not have children and pass it on, that's the cure.

    • @huntingtonsdiseaseassociation
      @huntingtonsdiseaseassociation 4 месяца назад

      Hello Our purpose is to educate as many people as we can about the disease and it's misconceptions. Most people have already had children before they find out that they carry the disease. We also educate those who are positive or at risk and may not want to find out, how they can start a family without the risk of passing the faulty gene on.

    Retired immunologist with a friend with HD. Are you aware of any trials (or anecdotes) of diets or antioxidant therapy that may slow progression of the disease? I am particularly interested in ketosis and ketogenic diets used for epilepsy and whether it may apply to other neurological diseases.

      Hi there, we would recommend watching the video below, it is a Q&A with HD Buzz (a reputable source for Huntington's disease research news) and the do touch on diet in this video: ruclips.net/video/iEmA8FkM010/видео.html Also, it would be worth getting them signed up to Enroll-HD (you can find more about this in the below video): ruclips.net/video/ncsplp9uTeo/видео.html They are a clinical research platform and the world largest studies and is a resource for both people with Huntington's and professionals. They have links to all trials as well.

    See this was what I kept saying when people were being so hateful like it was our fault that families couldn't come in (those of us working in the care homes). Tried to say this to lots of people telling them come get a job and you can come in, we need the help too. But not one person did this even those who were griping that their employers had to close their jobs.

    Having a diagnosis is important because even though you know that you keep seeing those job ads and you would love to be able to be a tree-climbing Arborist. You know that your father would have probably been able to work for longer if he wasn't a roofer. He didn't know that he was HD positive, though.

    Steve, thank you for this. My wife is in stage 4. Retrospect is insightful to understand the impact the disease has on us as spouses and care-givers, but the personal aspects are nuanced and hard to make others understand. So, bravo to you for giving us a collective voice. -Scott, co-founder of Team2CureHD, US.

    A brave video which will help so many people. I learnt I was at risk when I was 16. I waited until I was 47 to get a negative test. During that time, there was no support. I'm 62 now, with numerous family members who have passed away as a result of the illness. The disease changes family dynamics and isolates. If you are able to talk about it, it will help the terrible isolation of this illness.
