Wish we can help

Hello to everyone in this supportive and kind community.It’s a very tough time for me and my family as we lost our father a month ago.My dad was very generous, always willing to help other people.We want to give some things that he used and we would be pleased if they help even a little other patients.I ‘ll address them to the first 3 people (no postage needed) that ‘ll send a reply.My dad was taking Quinomit, it’s Q10 in liquid form, and we believe that it was giving him some help.According to our neurologist, it’s the only effective form, Q10 in pills don’t help.For anyone that want to give it a go, we have 5 bottles left.Also, we have a pair of prism glasses.It didn’t help my dad, but perhaps another patient could get some help from these glasses, as the disease is different for each one.In addition, we had bought an e-reader, a device that can be loaded with e-books and pdf files.It can be useful for a patient who is mainly in early stages i believe, as you can enlarge the text, making reading more easy.If you are interested for something of the above, send me a reply.Thank you so much for all your help all this time.I wish you and your families all the best, John.

Dear John...thanks for your generous offer. Don' need any items as I was my wife's carer.I just managed todonate two electric wheelchairs plus a transfer chair that hung around almost a year!

Thanks too for the nice words about this forum.

Just to wish you and the family courage....and I think I'm expressing this forums collective thoughts when I write that it's a blessing your dear Dad's pain and suffering has gone

.And he'll be watching over over you, I'm sure.

best,brian

Hi John

Sorry I am a bit late in responding to your kind offer. I also suffer from PSP and take Q10 but in tablet form (400 mg three times a day). I am interested in your late father's liquid form; can you give me some details.

Regards,

Weedy

john_z in reply to Weedy2

Hi Weedy, my dad used to take a small dose of Q10 in pill form.A neurologist told us that Q10 in pill form has no effect, it only goes to stomach and then dissolved, we want Q10 to cross the blood and the way to achieve that is to give Q10 in liquid form.So, about fifteen months ago, we started Q10 in a liquid form called Sanomit.Then we changed it, as last summer come up in market a new type of liquid Q10, the Quinomit.It's the same product but more concentrated, so you need the half quantity per day.It's expensive, but i think it's worth a try.I believe that liquid Q10 was helping him, especially in strength and energy.During these months my dad's condition didn't worse notably, we had notice deterioration in his eyes mainly.He left us suddenly from a kind of cardiac arrest.If you want more information about Q10, you are very welcome.
