Families say childhood dementia is underfunded and under researched, and they want greater public awareness to help improve their children's lives. Jason Om reports.

I can’t imagine how heartbreaking it is as a parent having hopes and dreams and wanting everything for your children and your child losing there memories such amazing parents and beautiful children I wish nobody had to go through dementia
Great story, 7.30. It's so important that awareness of childhood dementia grows. Kids urgently need more research, improved care, and meaningful inclusion. Awareness is key to making that happen.
I’ve never heard of this before. So sad. God bless this family.
I had no idea. Truly heart breaking.😔.
One kid having dementia is tragic. But two kids? I have no words for how terrible that would be.
This is just absolutely awful, I couldn’t imagine having my children from babies teaching them how to learn and do things to be nearly back at that stage at 14, I pray for these families having to plan their childrens funerals 💔❤️
Gosh, so sad.
❤❤
Loud music ruins the video and is not necessary!
How do they diagnose it.
They say it on the video sort of
Vaccinated
Maybe....but with dementia/Alzheimer's being called diabetes type 3 I wonder if a strict ketogenic diet has been tried to examine the role of insulin and metabolic pathways
@@gisellemagraibhaigh8342 I would also consider adding fats to the strict keto regime.
They mentioned genetics. Re-watch.
They always say genetics if they are afraid of the findings ....who funds research .
@@gisellemagraibhaigh8342worth a try instead of trusting medical science .
