    Even though I live in California, I understand the difficulty getting to the meetings. I find that CurePSP does post youtube videos of the conferences that I have found helpful. I just re-watched one from last year. It covered PD, PSP, CBD and MSA. My husband entered Year 3 since diagnosis, so I am trying to get a grip on how he is doing vs where he was. I used this video to provide benchmarks. It also helps me prepare for visits to the neurologist and anticipate and prepare questions.

    Here is the linkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEhUup1psD4&list=PLID1PzLG_zrf_vycMtYtMl05iDfxVzxjA&index=1

    This is just one of the many you will find. Hope this is helpful.

    That is what I did when I watched this utube about PSP. I took 2-3 pages of notes to help keep up with where my husband is and to take to the neurologist.

    Kryste, thank you for posting this. I wish we could go because it should be interesting. Will they be putting it on utube or live scanning it for those of us who cannot go?

    I do not know but I will be sure to ask them to and let them know how important it is for all of us to be able to hear what they say so I will see what I can do or who I need to talk to.

    Hugs kryste
