Nikki's Way is striving to find a cure for Huntington's Disease!My name is Kristen Powers and my mother has Huntington's Disease, HD, a genetic brain disorder that affects the victim's ability to walk, talk, think or reason. Victims of this disease usually pass away and the disease has a 50% chance of spreading to the victim's children (genetically). Nikki's Way is my program that is raising money to fund research for a cure. I have raised $1000 so far and I am still working out.

My mom was diagnosed with this disease four years ago and she now lives in a nursing home, no longer able to talk. Basically, HD is a terminal, genetic brain disorder that affects the victim's ability to walk, talk, think and reason. go to www.hdsa.org for more information. I have been raising money for HD research and I am working on a fundraiser dinner in my town.
