Peace at Last

Our family friend Bill passed away yesterday morning due to complications from Huntington’s Disease.
I am so incredibly grateful to have been able to say goodbye.

I’m so sorry for your loss. One of my students lost her adoptive dad to HD last year, it’s such a bad disease.
I’m sorry for your family and his. Your story of your mother’s kindness really moved me.
I’m glad you got to say goodbye, too. Thanks for sharing a bit of his story with us. In honor of your family friend, the band that he loved.
I was just thinking about him today and wondering how he was doing. I’m sorry for your loss.
I am so sorry for your loss, your blog about him and your mom was very touching.
Thank you all so much! Huntington’s Disease is pretty craptastic; at least Bill went the way he wanted to, as opposed to living on a feeding tube for another ten or twenty years (as his mother did). The nurses were around him and he is finally at rest.
