Curse in Verse and Much More Worse - Huntington's Disease in Poetry &; Prose

Using poetry and prose, this book aims at describing Huntington's disease through the eyes of a carer based on her own experiences, and those of many hundreds of carers and sufferers. With over seventy poems, and their supplementary stories grouped within eight themes from science, to society, it touches on the practical sides of caring and darker side of human nature. Being the complex beast that it is, the book not only covers an insight into Huntington's but into the plight of people suffering from all kinds of mental and physical disability, and of those caring for them.
