Get help: Huntington's disease, correct? This is too difficult for you as a family to undertake alone. It is especially difficult if any child has been brought into the world with the knowledge that he/she may/will be affected also. Get help from your genetic counselor -- that's what they do best. Answer questions truthfully at an age-appropriate level.
