De onzichtbare strijd van aanwezig zijn met de ziekte van Huntington

Nieuws - Vereniging van Huntington

Vertaling van het artikel "The invisible battle of staying present with Huntington's disease" door Tanita Allen, gepubliceerd op Huntington's Disease News.

Tanita Allen leeft met de ziekte van Huntington en schrijft openhartig over wat het betekent om deel te nemen aan het dagelijks leven. In onderstaand stuk beschrijft ze een kant van de ziekte die zelden zichtbaar is voor buitenstaanders: de enorme mentale en fysieke inspanning die het kost om simpelweg aanwezig te zijn in de wereld. Haar woorden raken aan iets universeels (de behoefte om erbij te horen) maar laten ook zien hoe anders die ervaring is als je lichaam en geest voortdurend extra werk verzetten.

Glimpses from dating through wedding, birth of our child, to now. When I say this, don’t take it wrong. I love my husband. But I sure miss the man I began dating, fell for, and married. I miss the walks, just being together, living life without having to always think of solutions before the problems. Most people can say similar things due...

⏱️ 10 min read | In a human cellular system, scientists dialed back mismatch repair genes to reduce CAG expansion by up to 69%. This work is in its early days, but it shows promise for "anti-expansion" therapies that could be used to delay HD onset.

"Huntington kan vrouwen sociaal harder raken"

Nieuws - Vereniging van Huntington

De ziekte van Huntington maakt geen onderscheid in wie het treft. Toch blijkt uit recent onderzoek dat de ervaring van de ziekte en de impact op het dagelijks leven wel degelijk verschilt tussen mannen en vrouwen. Hoewel de genetische basis en de lichamelijke achteruitgang vaak gelijk oplopen, wijst een kleine Oostenrijkse studie uit dat vrouwen vaker kampen met gedragsproblemen en veel vaker hun baan verliezen.

Vrouwen met de ziekte van Huntington hebben een grotere kans op prikkelbaarheid en zijn vaker werkloos of werken vaker parttime dan mannen met deze neurodegeneratieve aandoening. Dit beweert althans een kleinschalig onderzoek van één enkel centrum in Oostenrijk.
