There's No Such Thing...
As an "former" Marine. Once a Marine, always a Marine.
This one is trying to raise awareness for Huntington's Disease. An excerpt:
Chris Prinopolos, 29, first learned something was wrong when police pulled him over after suspecting him of driving drunk.They took my license away for medical reasons, and then I found out why they took it away," he said. "It led me to find out what was going on here."
Police noticed that the former Marine was unsteady on his feet and his speech was slurred. Hours of research by Prinopolos and his mother, Chy Weed, whittled the cause to Huntington's disease, so they were prepared when tests confirmed it.
