Our mother was diagnosed with Progressive Nuclear Palsy in April. Us girls thought all this time she had dementia. Our Dr. Noticed her eye movements and stiffness in limbs. Since then she has been drooling profusely and coughing alot. She now is on total thickend pureed food and drops to help dry up secreations Our Mother is the sweetest woman anyone could meet. She was the Kin of our family. She loved to golf, exercise, and always be with her family and grandchildren. This disease is horrible.

So sad to see someone new joining the forum. It's the best place to get advice, support and tips, better than any Doctor in my opinion. My mum has PSP late stages and it is absolutely awful to witness.

My heart goes out to you. Just lost my mum to psp. Unbelievably cruel would be an understatement. Public awareness and research funding is needed.

I'm so sorry that you've lost you mum to PSP. We all have to lose out loved ones, but PSP is just too much to bear for everyone.

I don't think my mum has long, she has deteriorated so quickly, in hospital now.

I hope time heals for you and everyone on this forum xx
