Fundraising lies??



So the HDSA collects money from the community in walks and other fundraising events, said that the money goes to research. What little of the money goes to the research part, but now with CHID doing the research... what does the HDSA do for people like us who are in need? When are they going to tell us what they are doing for their "families", the people who are suffering now?
The 7% allocated to research in the 2009-2010 Annual Report from the HS..which means out of every $100 sent to hdsa will only $7 be used for research and the $93 go to other parts.why such a low amount for research? This that not the HDSA purpose. This is what we need for a cure. Also if everyone says they want their full $100 donated going to research will that be done? Won't that then exceed the 7% allocation. What does hdsa do then??
They have lied to the community since 2006 and state that they do give most of the money to research.But their numbers show different!

ANger.. yep .. it is funny how money and loved ones can cause that so easily.. I cant understand why more money is not going in to research??

Tears for the people who we have lost!! and for those who cant see to see it from our view!! tears
my fund raising efforts are for the JHDI and faceless no more...

God- help me to accept the things i can not changer. AND THE COURAGE to change the things I can! amen

go from here


So where to go from here??
Keep raising awareness.. I cant believe that a dr actually thought that Huntington's Chorea and Huntington's Disease were different and one was genetically passed on and the other was not!! wow..
WE NEED MORE PEOPLE SPEAKING OUT!
DO NOT BE ASHAMED.. it makes me so sad when i hear people say well we didn't talk about cause we just hid from it.. how lonely and scary.. for the hd positive and the other family members..

Kate says when the time comes she would like to place in a "home".. but there is no way in hell that i will bring her some where far away.. actually i don't think i could be strong enough to bring her any where.. Those family that do fine placement. they are brave, the choices they make are much harder than what anyone knows!.. me welll not so much..

Also found out to that if a child is disable before 18 than they collect off the parents social security.. Check this out guys it may bring so much needed extra cash to you instead of the ssi amount.


23Then shalt thou walk in thy way safely, and thy foot shall not stumble. 24When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet. 25Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh

I hate learning more about JHD... yet I love talking to people. and learning how i can help..

Thursday are are hard for all of us.. Shawn has OT in Sioux Falls and it is always busy and insane and often times over whelming... Mikey came with.. Him and Joe had me giggling just like they used to... Crazy teenage boys.. :)
Kate was home most of the day.. I learned today that I cant ask her to watch the bulldogs.. I not sure if she forget or what.. or if she she doesn't want to..I have no idea..

Her boyfriend called to Iowa city and learned that I wasn't lying or just being a over protective mom.. I think is scared him.. But he says he wants to do what he can for her.. I am glad he called.

Kate played with Gabe this am.. hearing them two giggle today warmed my heart..

it is funny how i get frustrated with her.....but i guess that is being mom..

Panel at USD


So today Kate and I traveled to Vermillion SD..We meet up with Betty Margaret and Lorraine and Pete from the HD support group. We served as a panel for first year medical students to learn about HD and JHD.. It was very nerve racking.. yet very nice.. the students asked questions.. It seems they related to Kate due to her age. She answered many questions.
I am so proud of her.
I love road tripping like that with "MC KATE".. she controls the music..I love the memories we are making.. We giggled about some stupid things she rolled her eyes and me and she laughed with me.. it was a beautiful day... Thank you God for Tod

Proverbs 3
13Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.
14For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.
15She is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her.
16Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honour.
17Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace.
18She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.
19The LORD by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens. 20By his knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew. 21My son, let not them depart from thine eyes: keep sound wisdom and discretion: 22So shall they be life unto thy soul, and grace to thy neck.23Then shalt thou walk in thy way safely, and thy foot shall not stumble. 24When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet. 25Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh
