Hi to all. When to write about your dear ones, could you pls specify their age? It’s important to me, to orient me on the road we are walking thru. I know each case is singular, specific; but there are some commonalities. My best.

Hello, my sister is 77 years old. She was diagnosed in 2018 as PSP-P. An important fact, he has had symptoms for 15 years. The drooping of the eyelids was definitive for the diagnosis. The disease progressed so much that I had to put her in a care home. She continues to be attentive and participates in conversations with total lucidity

Hope this could help.
