Is this true? They ... ( 3 months ago by amymm23)

Is this true? They can do that through in vitro? Or is it still new, and they're not sure how the babies will turn out?

If you have enough ... ( 3 months ago by prettierthanHalo)

If you have enough money, they can do it. The only problem is do you feel morally right doing that. I think you mioght even have to go to special facilities to have it done.

very untrue my mom ... ( 2 months ago by chaosad999)

very untrue my mom died of huntington's disease

i understand your ... ( 2 months ago by chaosad999)

i understand your view but i am at risk of hd and i wouldnt be if my mom didnt decide to have kids. im 50/50 about having it and if i have it there will be no kids. i think u owe it to ur kids.

ive noticed in my ... ( 2 months ago by chaosad999)

ive noticed in my family it hits 100% everyother generation so me and my bro have a 50/50 odds. hopefuly is one of us has it they wont be too selfish to give use medicinal marijuana i know it worked for my mom so she didnt have to eat morphine like candy.

i can only hope if ... ( 2 months ago by chaosad999)

i can only hope if i have hd someone in my family will shoot me.

I've decided that ... ( 2 months ago by arb6534)

I've decided that once I get to a point that I want children, I will get tested for the disease. If I am positive for HD, I would have my eggs tested to use only to ones not carrying to disease... Then at least I know the disease would stop with me. I know this isn't for everyone, but it's what I would do. I'm sorry to hear you're at risk. I know the fear of the unknown. My uncle died a month ago from HD and it's a terrible disease. Live your life fully everyday!

Wow, this is ... ( 2 months ago by Premack019)

Wow, this is actualy scary. My mom has hd, and my grandma and aunt died from it, my other aunt and my uncle are both fighting it now. I know i have a 50% chance of getting it, im 16 will there be a cure by the time im old enough to start suffering?

My grandmother died ... ( 2 months ago by Machiavelli1513)

My grandmother died at age 69 in a nursing home because of HD.

I want to smack the ... ( 2 months ago by bratfink74)

I want to smack the woman at 6:30. Why the hell would you have a baby knowing that it could have HD??! Why be so selfish?! I feel bad for her b/c of her HD, but she made a stupid, selfish decision.

sadly no. im 13 i ... ( 2 months ago by gears1204)

sadly no. im 13 i dont have it but im workin on a research paper about it. the gene wasnt discovered until 1993 and we still dont know much about it, but maybe there will but i highly doubt it. maybe youll be luck and not inherit it. all i can say is pray, but dont live in fear of it.

I've been looking ... ( 2 months ago by MissPrayer)

I've been looking for a documentary about Huntingtons disease, because I'm doing a project about it. It's a terrible disease and I'm going on a health and cure school, this is why I'm doing it cause I want everyone to know how to handle it if they ever meets one. If you know anywere I can get information or even talk to someone with it, I would appreciate if you just sent me a message.
Thanks in advance.

I really agree with ... ( 2 months ago by krizb85)

I really agree with everything this documentary set out to achieve, and my best wishes go out to all those affected by this disease directly and indirectly

im confused, are ... ( 1 month ago by bookkid16)

im confused, are you mentally aware of what is going on when the symtoms begin to occur?

Apparently you are? ... ( 1 month ago by Crazee108)

Apparently you are? Like when you're unable to do something, you realise this and get frustrated... that's probably one of the cruelest things about the disease. =/

It's not as black ... ( 1 month ago by Crazee108)

It's not as black and white as you think. Ideally - if everyone who carried the gene, can just get rid of the gene and live on and have children. but to say for them NOT to pass it on is not your call. Leave nature to do what it's meant to do... Things happen for a reason, genetic mutations happen for a reason.

Thing is though - ... ( 1 month ago by Crazee108)

Thing is though - god created all the genes as they were, mutations was part of nature and hence not "controlled" by god, because he did after all give everything he created free will. or so the story goes.

I respect everyones ... ( 1 month ago by Crazee108)

I respect everyones decisions that were raised in this video. However,I was wondering - to say they didn't want to get tested? IMO, Doesn't that just prove that they are in a state of "denial"? =/ To leave it all to science? It is the individual's responsibility, first and foremost to bring a child into this world, not science.
I don't mean to offend, but their perspectives regarding their state of denial intrigued me and I would like to hear other ppl's perspectives regarding the issue.Thankyou

You fail to realise ... ( 1 week ago by seriouslydubwise)

You fail to realise that when you are "at risk" (as in untested) you are considered a healthy normal human being and getting tested has a massive impact on everything like life insurance, family's feelings, health and finance.

Its just as ... ( 1 week ago by seriouslydubwise)

Its just as devastating to find that you've lived your life worrying about it only to discover you dont have it just as much as it would be to discover that you do have it and begin to prepare for the future. so why bother, we all as himan beings know we're going to deteriorate and die in later life, why should we want to find out how?

Thanks for the ... ( 1 week ago by latasharp)

Thanks for the video. May God bless all of those who are affected by this disease, may he strengthen you and comfort you in your time of need. I pray that there may one day be a cure and that many lives will be saved. My love and blessings to you all!

Weather to take the ... ( 5 days ago by bman231)

Weather to take the test or not for me personally has been tough my whole life the way I see it is if I take the test and I have it then all hope is gona and for the rest of my days I will only be able to think bout is watching my Dad die my entire life and the same happen to me

Yea Hungtingtons ... ( 5 days ago by bman231)

Yea Hungtingtons affect you mentally and physically but from cases like my dad physically he was hurt he moved un controllably but his brain during the first year or so his mind was still the same his brother on the other hand for the firt couple of years his body didnt have much movements but he wasnt the same person mentally. But eventually Huntingtons Disease takes away everything mentally physically and earthly. earthly meaning doing things that you did b4 but cant do anymore
