If you’ve got PSP, soon or later it gets hard to read a page of text. It typically starts with difficulty in accurately flicking the eyes down the correct distance to the next line while simultaneously moving leftward. I assume that those of you in that boat have taken advantage of audio versions of your reading matter, and I’d like to make you aware of a new resource from CurePSP.

You may have seen the booklet “PSP: Some Answers” on the CurePSP website.
It’s an eight-page description of PSP in non-technical language formatted as answers to frequently-asked questions. The document’s perfect technical level and writing style are similar to those of this blog because they share the same distinguished author, who received valuable editorial help for the 2024 update from Jessica Shurer, CurePSP’s Director of Clinical Affairs and Advocacy.

The good news today is that there’s now an audio version of PSP: Some Answers at https://www.psp.org/audiobooks. The reader is not a text-to-voice app, but a human being who pronounces everything clearly and accurately. The page at that link also has similar audio files on multiple system atrophy and corticobasal syndrome.

I hope this new resource is helpful. I’d appreciate any feedback to assist in the next update.
