While so much needed attention is focused on Covid-19 as it should be, lets not forget the reason why we're here on this forum... PSP-CBD. Wouldn't it be wonderful if 2020 was the year for cure...

Maybe the medical establishment in the USA will become aware of it. Would be nice.

Yes Jeff that would be wonderful. In the beginning of mom's battle with PSP l felt absolutely rediculous (& inadequate) trying to explain PSP to medical personnel who had never heard of it. Hopefully it is better known now. Sending hugs... Granni B

Larry’s first neurologist didn’t diagnose anything for the first year and a half. Not a clue as to what was going on. I had to go see another neurologist to get an answer.

Still... to this day, there are many in the medical profession who have no idea what PSP is. Guess we'll have to shout a little louder.

I had to explain it to a lot of medical people.

I never heard of PSP before Larry got it or CBD and MSA. Lewy body disease I had heard about.

I don't think I'm unstoppable, but I will keep trying until I can't. Be kind to yourself during this time.

I’ve heard that Covid-19 can mask itself by showing symptoms of having had a stroke. Scientists are researching brain behaviors as a result of the virus. I’m hoping that they discover something that could help them solve some brain degeneration issues while looking for a vaccine/cure. One can only hope!
