Daniel was born in April 25, 2012. His favorite color is blue. Daniel has been experiencing symptoms since the age of 5 such as insomnia and behavioral issues at home and school. At age 8 Daniel started drooling along with impulsive tics and odd behavior, He was then refered by a social worker from HDSA to a neurologist in our area. At the first visit with the neurologist Daniel was considered appropriate to test due to symptoms. Labs came back with a postive Juvenile Huntington diagnosis with a CAG repeat of 78.

My boy has his Make a wish granted and i have to admit that I have never seen him smile they way he smiled. By the evening Daniel said his cheeks hurt from so much smiling it was so magical all the love that was demonstrated for him. The support from every single individual involved with both Make-A-Wish Oregon & Genentech was above all expectations. I feel so grateful and my heart is full of joy. It’s going to be his area. Set up with TVs, games.
