So, my little vial of blood is on it's way to Utah, where a special lab will determine how many CAG repeats my Huntingtin gene has.
(It's on the 4th chromosome)
It feels freeing, somehow, having done my part in the process of discovery. The results may bring more feelings of freedom, or less.
In 2 or 3 weeks, I'll get the news.
It seems that Arizona is a good place to be . . . lots of support people and programs for HD here. Good to know.
