I did write it originally and then edited it out but **** it, it’s Huntingtons Disease.

Thats a hard reality to face. My heart goes out to you both.

Yeah it is a hard pill to swallow. I pray it doesn’t start affecting him until he’s really old.

Oh goodness, so sorry to hear that. Just reading up on it, it seems it's not so fast so he will probably have many healthy years ahead.

That's horrible, fetcher :(

****ing hell K, that’s a rough one.

Like don’t get me wrong, I have no complaints and she’s a good boss, but all of a sudden she’s sending me emails with smiley faces and **** and taking extra time to thank me personally for doing things I’d be doing anyway.

What do you think, mb? Am I being pitied? Or does my boss want this p?

I'd agree with most here. I think she's just doing what she can because she feels for what you've been through, as I think most people would. Who can hear your story and not feel affected by it and want to do what they can to make you feel better?

So sorry to hear this, but as Adidass says, hopefully it will be a long time manifesting itself. I'm not entirely sure why you think you can't cry in front of him; have you to be the strong one always? Maybe he wants you to cry, and if you don't perhaps he might wonder if you understand/if it matters to you, which of course you do and it does, but I think maybe it's better to face it together than one or both of you trying to tough it out, which will actually avail nothing. Maybe he wants to cry too but feels he can't in front of you. Maybe you should consider crying together?

Thanks everyone, it has been in the pipeline for a while and we knew it was always going to be a possibility.

I don’t know TH, I just felt like I shouldn’t have a reason to cry or be upset because it’s not my diagnosis. Which I know is stupid. We are both pretty strong but felt like I had to try and hold myself together for him.
