Just a note on the Huntington's. It is a genetic disease passed by a dominant gene. Anyone who carried the gene will get the disease, so if your parent never develops the disease then you cannot have the gene for it. My childrens' ancestor was Robart -their grandfather was Kenneth Willis Comfort, who lived to the ripe old age of 70-something and never had any sign of the disease. Ergo, my sons (Sean Anthony Comfort & Andrew Michael Comfort) will never develop this horrible disease. Interestingly, women do get the disease as well, tho it is more common in men.
