Woodrow Wilson Huntington's Case Study!

Woodrow Wilson was a very interesting figure. He enjoyed writing, singing, and playing music. Wilson had a big influence on Bob Dylan. His main reason for OT referral was because of his hand coordination. It should also be noted that his mother was institutionalized, more than likely because of Huntington's disease. Huntington's disease is genetic and it makes sense that his mom had it. It was also noted that Woody sometimes could not recognize his erratic behavior. Woody would like to continue to sing, write, and play music. Woody would also like to have a stable home environment. Some goals for Woody would be to do exercise with Woody that will help him maintain his fine motor skills and coordination so that he can continue to play guitar, paint, write, and draw for as long as possible. Ellen did a great job on the presentation and presented appropriate intervention to give Woody the best life possible.
