Huntington’s disease is a long misunderstood, genetic, degenerative, fatal, and still incurable affliction. Huntington’s disease starts by slowly attacks the brain’s ability to control physical and neurological functions, and continues to progress until the affliction eventually leads to death. “HD” is particularly virulent to children. There haven’t been any support organizations for people or families afflicted by Huntington’s disease in the Inland Empire… until now. KVCR's Ken Vincent has Part 1 of a 2-part interview with Melissa Bilardi, the President and CEO of Help4HD International, and Daniel Medina, Help4HD's International Affairs Director, who is a resident of the Inland Empire.
