Hello Everyone
My name is Katrina but most of my friends call me Trina.
I am a full time carer and have been since 2020. Hubby and I now live in the Geelong area, and he was diagnosed in 2019 so we are learning every day about HD.
I have a strong background in People Management -30 plus years, which actually helps me in our daily life.
I am also a Marriage Celebrant, so generally a pretty happy positive person.
Brenden is very tech savvy, and so am I so we love using our technology in our house to keep our routines alive, which I am happy to share.
Looking forward to getting to know you all x

Hi Trina,
Welcome to this group. I look forward in hearing about all the tech things that you and your husband are using to help maintain your routines. I was a support person for my friend who had HD and having a routine (especially in the later stages) was very important for her. She has since gained her wings and is watching over her daughter from above, who is asymptomatic of this disease. I hope you both are able to attend the conference in oct. Check out events on this site. Take care and remember that you are not alone.
Welcome Trina!
I'd love to know more about the Tech you guys use to help, sound very interesting!
Happy Monday!
Hi Trina
Welcome to you and your family and look forward to your involvement in the group.
