Today Is A Character Building Day - Huntington's Disease

The Carmichael family intimately knows what it's like to be challenged by life. Brad had his PR degree and was a combat engineer in the military reserves. He was passionate about sports and had a very social life. However there was one dark cloud looming over him and his potential future. Brad's father had died of Huntington's disease, and for Brad and his mother Peggy, they knew that there was a chance Brad could face a similar fate. Brad was diagnosed with Huntington's in 2018. Since then the disease has quickly progressed and Peggy is now his full time caretaker. We are joined by Brad and his lovely mother as they give us a small glimpse into life with Huntington's and Brad shares with us how he manages to stay positive in the face of something so daunting and challenging. If you'd like to support Katie Mahoney in her fundraiser to send Brad and his family to Europe you can do so here: https://gofund.me/d0bfd81c *Join the post-episode conversation over on Discord! https://discord.gg/expeUDN
