Abigail Ensall was accompanied by her mother, it was her that had to intervene to stop her daughter from being harmed due to oxygen problems and being further exposed to inappropriate questioning and an appalling attitude.
Re: Huntingdon's Disease. The point is that the assessor did not know as much about the condition as was claimed and the doctors letter was wholly ignored- the questions were still directed to Mr Fletcher.

it was others who had to point out that it was scaremongering, not you. You kept insisting it wasn't.
Can't find any other reference to that story.
All the doctor did was comment on the generality of the condition. As the symptoms can vary greatly and it could be in the early stages, the impact could be less. It is the impact that they are looking at.

The symptoms of Huntington’s disease usually develop when people are between 30-50 years old, although they can start much earlier or much later. The symptoms can also differ from person to person, even in the same family.
Sometimes, the symptoms are present for a long time before a diagnosis of Huntington’s disease is made. This is especially true when people are not aware that Huntington’s disease is in their family.
