"Progressive Supranuclear Palsy is a rare brain disease affecting only a few thousand people in the U.S. each year; yet, the trajectory of the illness compares with other terminal or degenerative diseases in its overwhelming challenges and everyday triumphs. 'Killing Mother', one family's story of coping with this grim disease, narrates a universal struggle as it paints a loving portrait of an ordinary woman on her unique journey toward the only certain ending."--Page 4 of cover.
