The family were all with him and the end was quite peaceful, something we are grateful for. He had been diagnosed for 7 years and his quality of life has slowly eroded over this time, especially the last 2-3 years. We are trying to take comfort in knowing that his suffering has now ended and hopefully the passing of time will help.

Our thoughts are with everyone involved one way or another with this condition

Sorry to hear of the loss of your husband after the long battle with PSP. As you say, his suffering has ended. I wish you and your family well and that the coming days will bring fresh and brighter times. Hold on to those good memories of him before the PSP started.

So sorry for your loss. I'm sure your emotions are full of sadness and yet relief as well. Please heal yourself. May I ask how old Tony was. Hope you stay on the site.

Hello Mars -

It's just over a year since my Tony left us. Our son put together some photos which were out at the gathering after the funeral. People who only knew him in the last few years were pleased to see the "old" Tony and it has proved a comfort for me to look back on and remember the good times.

Take care - it's taken a year for me to close that door and open the next one
