About the Book
Ward Hollister is "at risk" for one of the most frightening genetic diseases, Huntington's Chorea. When his life was at its most promising he is forced to face the future, not with confidence, but with uncertainty. Covering the years between 1965 and 1985, this is his story and that of his wife Mercedes who has her own uncertainty. Families hold us together. Ward and Mercy are lucky in that respect.
