The Valentine family: Peter, Peter Jr., Will, Kiki, Judy & David.
At the age of 40, Will Valentine was diagnosed with HHT. Genetic testing also revealed that his son inherited the disease. “I decided the best thing I could do for my son was to lead by example,” said Will. As the oldest of four, he shared his genetic results with his brothers and sister, encouraging them and their children to also get tested.
