Okay, so you want info on Huntington's disease? Here is is:

Huntington's is a genetic disease that slowly eats away at your muscles, and since your heart is a muscle and (sort of) your brain is a (SORT OF!) muscle, you can tell what happens there. There is no cure, just a way to slow it. So, that is all I know off the top of my head (Don't quote me about any thing unless I have the PDR, the Tabers or some other medical book near me or in my hands!). I am not a doctor (Not even out of HS yet) so if you want more info, let me gat a book, and just reply. I will be happy to help your curious little minds! :)

Sorrs guys, but hey, I told you not to trust me with any medical info. So, I looked it up just to get more info and make sure I was right, and I said "CRAP!" because it doesn't eat away at the muscles, it eats away at the nerves! I failed my bio test. lol! No, I passed with fying colors, butthe end result is the same: it gets to your brain and spinal cord, and its lights out forever.
