Many of you may not know that Kate Miner, actress, musician, Huntington’s Disease (HD) Advocate has HD in her family. Her mother, and two sisters tested positive. Kate tested negative. What-is-HD?
Jenne Coler-Dark & her husband
Kate & her 2 sisters
Last year, when I was publishing my book, Watching Their Dance, I reached out to Kate requesting a book jacket comment. She graciously agreed and her comment appears on the front cover. Kate and her husband are supporters of the HDSA FREEZE HD event that was held on Sept. 22, 2018 in Los Angeles.
A few days ago, I found this awesome film, The Race, that includes Jenne Coler-Dark’s HD story, Kate Miner’s sister and who is gene positive. Read Jenne Coler-Dark’s Story
The film is about a young, idealistic Huntington’s Disease researcher who comes face-to-face with three generations of a family devastated by the fatal, incurable disease she studies. For the scientist, who has never met anyone with Huntington’s Disease, the stakes of her research become real. For a Huntington’s Disease patient at the center of the story who is watching her mother sicken, fearing her own demise, and afraid for her two kids, it’s a mother’s plea – and a race against time

100% of the proceeds from the book are being donated to the nonprofit, Huntington’s Disease Society of America (HDSA). It’s available on many book websites like Amazon.com
