Oddly and sadly enough, I was reading just the other day about the same disease that afflicts Linda Ronstadt has now struck Democratic US Representative Jennifer Wexton of Virginia.

Is there anyone around here with knowledge of/experience with #PSP #ProgressiveSupranuclearPalsy ? Our time dealing with this #RareDisease ended 4 years ago when dad died, but the interest in the disease hasn’t. There’s always a bit of fear that it may be some genetic component we might have inherited.
