Huntington's Disease Society hosts annual Team Hope walk

Huntington's Disease is a hereditary, neurodegenerative brain disorder for which there is no known cure. The Illinois Chapter of the Huntington's Disease Society of America (HDSA) hopes to change that with its annual Team Hope walk. On May 18 hundreds are walking through Naperville, Ill. to increase awareness and raise funds for research.

Charlotte Rybarczyk, president of HDSA Illinois, and Jeanette Young, daughter of an HD patient, joined us live from the walk during our ABC 7 Eyewitness News Sunday morning to talk about the organization.
