Pierce and his wife Shirley have a daughter named Annie. When Annie is 15 years old, Pierce develops motor movement malfunction and cognitive losses. Pierce is diagnosed with Huntington's Disease. Huntington's disease (HD) is a genetic disorder, with onset in middle age resulting in a progressive loss of muscular and psychiatric control, ultimately leading to death. There is no cure for HD and Annie has about a 50% chance of having the same mutation. Should Annie's parents tell her about the diagnosis and/or should she undergo testing? Tell me whether you think they should or shouldn't.
