Please support Kathleen Edward by going to this Facebook Page. Like it and leave a positive message for this little girl. This page is called We Love You Kathleen has been set up by friends and family to counteract what is going on in this child’s life.
Kathleen is seven years old and dying from Huntington’s disease. Huntington’s disease is a progressive, degenerative disease that causes certain nerve cells in your brain to waste away. As a result, you may experience uncontrolled movements, emotional disturbances and mental deterioration.
Her mother died a year ago of the same horrible disease.
Why did I ask you to support her Facebook page? If matters were not bad enough, Kathleen is being cyberbullied by her 33 year old neighbor. This woman with no remorse has posted photoshopped horrible and ghoulish pictures of Kathleen and her mother on her Facebook page.
She and her husband decorated their truck to look like a hearse and drove it back and forth in front of the Kathleen’s home. When asked why she did this she said “personal satisfaction”. You can find the complete story here.
Kathleen’s page now has over 4,000 members. Please send Kathleen and her family some positive support.

Thank you for the link to the facebook page. In my experience not that many people are aware of the disease and usually it is mistaken for something else. Especially if the family was not aware they had the gene.
This is the first time I have actually come across a young person that has the disease. It is so sad that someone with a terminal illness gets treated in such a cruel way.
