Alice. No that wasnt us who put that in the newspaper. I was alittle upset that his death wasnt even reported in the Reno paper. He sat on the railroad track in Reno at 4:08 am. He texted his friend and asked for forgiveness and asked God to forgive him to. I dont know how long you have lived in Reno, but do you remember when in 1987 (in think) when a man ran over people in downtown Reno.by Janesica - Huntington's Disease Support Center
rj, now that I am looking over my brothers life, I see that he started having trouble when he was about 26 yrs old. He started having hallucination and in fact he ran people over in Reno thinking that he was to save the world. He went to prison for awhile. We thought it was because he smoked pot. Then he started having ups and downs, he seemed over controlling and opinionated and argumentativby Janesica - Huntington's Disease Support Center
Stella.... I cant thank you enough for your message. It sound exactly like my brothers life. Never fit in, Disappearing for months, came to the place he couldnt work, everything seemed overwhelming couldnt sleep, His mind constantly thinking. He constantly complained but couldnt put his finger on what it was he was having problems with. Paranoia, conspiracy, government...on and on.

Stella, thank you. I know you are right. Dan is happy. Im also glad he told me. I know he told me out of love. We will get through this... He is finally at peace... Did your brother know he had hd?? Do you know if you have hd?? Was your brother really bad or just showing signs?? I need to talk about all these thing. I hope its not too personal. Its ok if you dont want to talk about it.by Janesica - Huntington's Disease Support Center
Thank you Eric and Marsha for your words. It seems that everyone in the family doesnt want to face the facts. I know that I dont know if Dan had Hd. When I called the coroners I asked them if they would please check his remains to see if he had hd and they told me I would have to hire a private pathologist and it would cost me thousands. The Lady told me I just needed to accept the decison thaby Janesica - Huntington's Disease Support Center
I need to talk about this. Im so sad. My Dads brothers and sisters (7 in all) have hd. My Dad hasnt shown signs of the disease. We only learned about this being in our family about 10 yrs ago when my Dads second brother was diagnosed. I started doing research on the disease and my family thought I was being too obsessed over it. Then last year my little brother started having outbursts andby Janesica - Huntington's Disease Support Center
Hi Im Janesica 54 yrs old, 4 children, 1 grandchild, Married 31 years We know now that my dads mother had hd, but was never diagnosed. I always knew something was wrong or abnormal with my grandma, but I thought that was what old people did when they get old... Then my dads older brothers started having difficulty walking and many other things and that is when we first heard of Hd. Now it lookby Janesica - Huntington's Disease Support Center
