louise, mike, lori & marci & family,
my deepest sympathy to all of you on the passing of your husband, dad and grandfather. psp is a devastating disease; my husband, buck, passed away from psp back in april. he lived with the disease for over a decade; onset was in his early 40s. when he was diagnosed with psp, we thought how rare this degenerative neuromuscular disease was; we found out otherwise the last few years.
i hope that you will find comfort in the love and support of family and friends. i pray that the peace of God surrounds all of you at this very difficult time.
love,
denise warrender
