"My journey started more than six years ago when my husband began to show problems with balance, unsteadiness, eyesight and behaviour.

"Doctors, GP's and other health professionals could not give us an explanation for these symptoms which gradually got worse over the next year or so. Eventually we had a referral to a neurologist but unfortunately it was another nine months before we got an official diagnosis from one of his colleagues.

"I understand, only with fundraising for support and research, as well as awareness raising, will we begin to better understand the complexity of PSP & CBD. That's why last year with the help of my friends and family, I raised more than £300 for PSPA selling raffle tickets." Valerie

A rare disease isn't so rare when you or a loved one are affected by it. Make this a daily mantra - "I understand, only with fundraising for support and research, as well as awareness raising, will we begin to better understand the complexity of PSP & CBD.
