Our PSP Journey is Over

[Jkhakh2]

My husband Gerald lost his battle with PSP Monday afternoon with his sister, our son and myself by his side. I had stayed with him the entire night and sometime in the early morning hours he rallied... told him, I'm here and that I loved him and miraculously he was able to form the words "I love you" and repleted it several times! He had not been able to communicate for the last 3 months. He even rubbed my hand with such intent, it felt like he was free from the grips of his horrible disease, if just for a minute. The road was long he battled in one way or another for 15 years. My prayers are with everyone here on the forum and I will always be here for all. Hugs to all. Jeri

My love and prayers are going out to you, my dads battle ended with CBD on 29th November and he said he loved me too, as clear as day. It will forever stay with me.

My sincere sympathy to you and your family. It was so good that Gerald could rally and leave you with an I love you. Something he has probably wanted to say for a long time but just could not.

Many hugs to you.

Thinking of you at this sad time.

It was lovely to hear you both managed to say those three words, a lovely thing to remember.

Take care

sorry for your loss. He is now happy, free for any pains and discomfort after 15 years of battle

So so sorry for your loss. So special you had those final I love you’s. Priceless at such a sad time. If tears are diamonds you are rich beyond your wildest dreams now. Let them fall but catch them all as each one is a precious memory of your love for each other. Take time now to give yourself some me time as I know from our experience losing dad this summer you’ll need it to cope with the next few weeks. 15 years is a long long road full of joys and sorrows too. As we journey on now let your heart beat strong with his love inside you all. Gerald has reached the end of his road and another angel is born. Let him fly free at last from this horrid illness.

Keep strong ....

Hugs
