Case Study: Trey Gray

Trey Gray was diagnosed with Huntington's Disease in 2003 when he was 32 years old. He became a national spokesperson for Huntington's disease in 2008 and created the Trey Gray fund at Vanderbilt. Since HD is a degenerative disease, OT would focus on his muscle cognition and muscle memory skills to prolong his occupation of drumming. He has symptoms of fatigue, weakness, memory, and mood swings in his early stages. A long term goal for Trey would be to make a daily schedule to better organize his day and keep track of his daily tasks that need to be completed.
