Posterior Cortical Atrophy(1)

We are from Baltimore MD. Does anyone in this group suffer from PCA? I've asked a few months ago and no one has responded. It is a very rare form of Alzheimer's and usually affects those under 65. I have found multiple support groups, but all are based out of the UK. I also found (through one support group) someone who lives close to us. Our spouses attend the same Day Center.
