Dimitri Poffé: Life With Huntington Disease, a Life Worth Living | Dan Go Thoughts Ep #9

This time I’m talking to Dimitri Poffé, who is the founder of https://www.instagram.com/exploreforhuntington/ , which is an organization devoted to raising awareness of Huntington’s Disease. It is a genetic neurological disease that usually takes place around the age of 25-35, depending on how much of its genetic component one carries. He himself was diagnosed with the condition and decided to dedicate the rest of his life to travel, raising awareness of the condition, and doing his part to try and help communities around the world which has a substantial percentage of their population influenced by the disease. I was deeply moved by his mission and wanted to bring it to people’s attention. If you can, please go to Dimitri’s GoFundMe campaign and donate what you can to his cause. You can do this at https://www.gofundme.com/f/exploreforhuntington
