  1. MC, I was just glad to see the condition get some attention. I thought it was an excellent episode of House--although it was strange watching it, already knowing the diagnosis. And while the portrayal of CM wasn't ideal, at least a lot more people know it exists!

  3. I had heard of the disease before I met you MC but I really had no idea of what people with this disease go through. Remember how I was panicking when you weren't able to get back to us after your first hospitalization? Actually most of us were very worried. I certainly hope the worst is over with. I'm so impressed by your motivation as after some terrible nights you describe you head out to work and I'm thinking omg how can she do that? I'm so glad I've gotten to know you,you're a sweetheart.

  4. House has also done a good job of garnering attention for Huntington's Disease. There's always a subtle reminder that Thirteen has it in every episode.

    You are so brave, Amy! Know you always have my admiration.

  5. aww thanks everyone! I think the hardest thing is to accept mine is really a "chronic disorder" and there will be ups and downs. I can only hope for more ups than downs. Having you to help me thru it sure helps!
