THE STORY:
HUNTINGTONS DISEASE SOCIETY OF AMERICA INC wrote -
Huntington's Disease (HD) is an inherited neurodegenerative brain disorder with symptoms likened to the worst of those associated with Parkinson's, Alzheimer’s and ALS. It is as common as Cystic Fibrosis and Muscular Dystrophy. There currently is no treatment or cure, however, since it's genetic location is known and pre-symptomatic individuals can be identified. HD is an excellent research candidate and a cure will surely benefit those diseases that have so much in common with it.
Please help us in our efforts to end HD and provide help for those who suffer from it. To learn more about Huntington's Disease and our Orange County Chapter, please click HERE.
Thank you very much Rick. I appreciate you involving yourself with such a meaningful charity, running the Half and taking time to raise awareness and funds. Your friendship means a great deal and I enjoy the levity you bring to work. Looking forward to a fun run and a guiness after. 1 year ago
