Somebody Up There Likes Me: Living with the Threat of Huntington’s Disease - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

If you thought that unbreakable family curses only happened in fairy tales, think again.

Nobody really wants to know how they’re going to die. I certainly don’t, do you? But when you find out that an incurable disease is imprinted in your DNA, passed down through the generations, it leaves its mark.

This is my personal account of growing up in the shadow of Huntington’s Disease, a hereditary illness with no remission.

I wouldn’t wish Huntington’s on anyone, but its impact on my mother and my brother Nick has shaped my family over the years and taught me so much about courage and finding happiness against all the odds.

You also learn what’s truly important in life, which mostly boils down to love.
