Huntington's Disease (HD) is a devastating, hereditary, degenerative
brain disorder for which there is no cure, and only one FDA-approved
treatment (Xenazine) for symptoms. HD slowly diminishes the affected
individual's ability to walk, talk and reason. Eventually, the person
with HD becomes totally dependent upon others for his or her care. HD
profoundly affects the lives of entire families – emotionally, socially
and economically.
