My name is Dan and I'm writing this blog to document the journey my Mother and I are taking with a little know disease called PSP (Progressive Supranuclear Palsy). It is also known as Steele-Richardson-Olszewski syndrome.

Long Day
Well its confirmed, Mom has a broken hip. She has a femoral neck fracture, and the femur is displaced from the ball. The doctor has told me she will require a hip replacement because the ball gets its blood flow from the main part if the femur. This means the ball has not had any blood flow. We had hoped for sugary today, but looks like tomorrow. I had really hoped it would happen today, Mom is in a great deal of pain.
