JiePie SCHOUPPE was born on October 03, 1942. After a years long fight with MSA (Multiple system atrophy), JiePie passed away on December 27th 2009. JiePie died peacefully in my arms. It all happened so quick that I'm sure he didn't suffer at that time. JiePie donated his brains for research. I truly wish that JiePie's brain donation can make a difference in finding a treatment to MSA. I wish all patients the courage and the strength to fight against MSA.
