Have you ever heard of this disease?

A friend of ours passed away in August of this year.

He started having problems 10 years ago and steadily got worse.
He went to several doctors and was finally diagnosed with
Multiple Systems Atrophy. I did a google search, what an awful
disease.

He was 48 years old, stout and strong as a bull at one time.

That does sound like a terrible disease.. no, had never heard of it but it seems I keep hearing about more and more diseases the older I get.. Probably just paying attention more now or something..

Sorry to hear about your friend.. Sounds like it would be very, very tough on the patient and the loved ones...

I also googled it and learned an estimated 25,000-100,000 Americans have it but they still don't know the cause. Tragic. Very sorry for your friend and family.
