Hello there! It has been eight years since I received my positive test results and seven years since I have posted anything new on this blog. In that time, I have been looking for my joy. I have spent my time with friends, traveling, at concerts, hiking, and doing whatever else makes my heart happy.
The five year mark for letting myself worry about my diagnosis has come and gone and in that time and I am pleased with the scientific gains we have seen. I've also discovered a supplement regimen that helps delay symptoms and I have started taking some. I'll make a full post on that soon!
A lot has changed in these seven years, importantly, I have remarried and am currently undergoing IVF with my best friend and love of my life. I'm so happy to be on this journey (pain in the ass that it is) and I'm looking forward to the future more than ever. I will make a full post on my IVF experience as well because I know how useful it is to those dealing with HD or any other genetic diseases.
In this time, I have learned the importance of taking care of my health, doing what makes me happy, and loving with no regrets. I found hope being able to take supplements and exercise in order to stay as healthy and as much ME as possible until they figure out a viable treatment. I've been manifesting love and a family as of late, but next will be a treatment for everyone affected. 💓
