I have HD RUNS IN my family went on disability 4 years ago. my grandmother had it my mom now me!

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope more progress is made in treating this disease in your lifetime. It runs in my family as well. My grandfather had it, and I had an aunt and a cousin with it. My mother didn't get it, so I'm safe. She does have Alzheimer's though, and I have wondered if the two are somehow related.

Latest stuff says misfolded proteins are elemental in Alzheimers, parkinson's and HD.

We have a number of distant cousins with the HD problem ~ but we don't. They are descendants of one of the two young women who came up to Indiana from Venezuela a century and a half ago.

Remember the way they used genealogical information to track and trace on HD to demonstrate that it was genetic in origin? That information is sort of available on the net ~ in several genealogies ~ but all the lines to/with HD are not on it. Handy for the rest of us ~
