Guest guest Posted October 28, 2002 Report Share Posted October 28, 2002 Hello everyone, I am Lou Bartee. My husband was being treated for PSP and then when he passed away 3-5-02 the family donated his brain to the Mayo Clinic for research. When the research papers came to me they informed me he had died of MSA. What a shock. I had only heard of it and knew nothing about it. I hurridly read enough to find out the outcome would have been the same. I am going to sit in and see what you all have to say and see where Jerry fit in with what you have to say. If a question comes up I can answer I will try to help you. Jerry had only been treated 2 1/2 years but we give a lot of thought to things that happened that were unaccountable and he started systoms in 1990 with dizziness. Sorry you all have to go through this but take it one day at a time and caregivers do give yourselves a rest. I nearly killed myself in December by getting to run down. Spent some time in the hospital. No fun. You are all in my prayers. Lou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
