Hi Kathy...thanks for that. I have just had a look at the BBC one. We're fortunate with our GP...he had some knowledge of PSP, which is good, but he also takes care of me. For instance...although I'm very mobile he insisted that I have collection & delivery of our prescriptions even though the chemist is only down the road & he will ring me if I need to talk to him but don't want to go to surgery & always comes to the house if I need him to see Frank.

I've recently had a review with him & lots of blood tests to check everything. As I say, I am fortunate but not everyone is.

Take care & keep smiling. Love Hazel B xx

Hi Hazel,

I'm very glad to hear you have such a good GP - it really does make all the difference.

Taking care of yourself is so important. It's been an uphill struggle to persuade Dad that he needs to look after himself too and not just Mum, We had a mini breakthrough recently when he had reached the end of his tether and he has just started on anti-depressants with really good results! :-)

Love

Kathy xx
