Thank you, Help 4 HD International for allowing me to sit in on a FDA Patient Session for Juvenile Huntington’s Disease today.

For those who don’t know, clinical trials for Huntington’s Disease are not currently offered for Juvenile HD because of the legalities behind it. They are left out for being minors, despite the fact they have a terminal, rapidly progressive disease.

I had the honor to witness so many strong and brave JHD mamas, like Autumn Tabor, Melissa Patton Walschburger, and others share their stories with the FDA in hopes for equal opportunity for access to trials and studies for JHD patients.

My sweet Bre: I wish you were still here, but I will continue to advocate for you despite the fact you’re no longer here with us physically, but always spiritually.

Thank you again to Help4HD for this opportunity and to the FDA for truly being willing to listen to our pleads for help and hope.
💜"
