Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Therese Crutcher-Marin's world was turned upside down when she learned that her fianc , along with his three sisters, were all at risk for Huntington's.Huntington's disease is a devastating inherited condition that produces a combination of neurological, motor, cognitive and psychiatric symptoms. It's been compared to having Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and ALS all at the same time. There is no cure.In her new memoir, Watching Their Dance, Crutcher-Marin shares her deeply personal story of marrying into a family at risk for Huntington's. Some lives seem to move smoothly along a natural continuum, with one event or decision seeming to slide into the next, she writes. Such people seem to have faced no dramatic forks in the road, had few life-altering choices to make. Other lives, at least in hindsight, travel in a particular direction at one particular life-changing moment. That's what happened to me, when, at age twenty-two, I suddenly had to confront the most complicated decision of my life.Crutcher-Marin tells of her soul searching and her fears as she contemplated a life of unpredictability: her fianc and each of his siblings had a 50-50 chance of developing a fatal wasting disease that had no test, no treatment, and no cure. She shares the great happiness and joy she experienced when she took a leap of faith and married the love of her life, along with the tough choices and pain that became part of her life as one by one her sisters-in-law slowly succumbed to the disease.Watching Their Dance is a truly inspirational story of hope as Crutcher-Marin shares the path she has chosen may be difficult but it has opened her heart to love more deeply and made her life that much richer. What Therese learned from the Marin siblings could never be found in a book, a classroom, a religious setting, or a therapist's office. Forty years ago, Crutcher-Marin took the biggest gamble of her life by keeping these people in hers, and it made her the person she is today.Therese Crutcher-Marin is a member of the board of directors of the Northern California Chapter of HDSA. She lives with her husband John in California. …

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Huntington's disease is a genetically inherited condition which results in severe nerve-cell damage in the brain. The hereditary and debilitative nature of the disease means that many people are involved either directly or indirectly by this condition. The recent identification of the faulty gene involved has made the diagnosis of this condition simpler. The majority of people develop the disease between the ages of 35 and 55 years, so for those aware of their genetic risk there are dilemmas to consider - should you have a test to see if you have the gene? Should you start a family?The new edition of this successful book specifically designed for families of patients with Huntington's disease has been expanded to include a number of important new developments in research and clinical practice that have occurred in the field in recent years. While there are no drugs currently available that slow down or reverse the neurodegenerative process in Huntington's Disease, there is growing data on the use of existing treatments to manage movement disorder, irritability and depression associated with the condition, which are covered here. This edition also includes completely new chapters covering juvenile Huntington's disease and late-stage Huntington's disease, and a fully updated Appendix of relevant patients' organizations.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Huntington's Disease is a genetically inherited condition, the result of severe nerve-cell damage in the brain. Due to the recent identification of the gene involved, and the debilitating nature of the disease, a great many more people are now affected either directly or indirectly (families and carers) by this condition. The majority of people develop the disease between the ages of 35 and 55, so for those that are aware of a genetic inheritance, there are enormous problems to confront - should you carry on life as normal? Should you start a family? In this, the first book on Huntington's disease written for sufferers and their families, advice is given on living with this disabling illness. Written as much for carers as for the patients themselves, the book aims to answer some of the questions that both sufferer and carer might have. With the identification of the responsible gene, genetic counselling is now available for those at risk of developing the disease. Though some may wish not to use these services, the book clearly explains the role of the counsellor, and what help is additionally available from the various patient organisations worldwide. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…
