Thanx for your inspirational words and attitude you have regarding the illness. I am 15 years old and was diagnosed a few weeks ago. I don't know what to expect but find consolation in your letter.

Gizelle - my niece is 16 and may have HD. She had a CT scan today and we will get the results tomorrow. If she does, I would like to find someone she can talk to or email that is going through the same thing. If you are interested, please reply back and I can give you my email address.

Thanks,
Katie
