    Thank you your in-depth analysis of dementia.
    My mom had been suffering from dementia for over 10 years.. Well we as Her closest family members had been suffering with Her to tell you the truth.
    Her late onset of the dementia was slower because of Her extremely active social and professional life, she got her doctorate and was a poetess as well.
    Anyway later on She got issues with Her eyesight, and was tackling with very serious eye diseases; that cut Her activity short and speeding Her dementia.
    Passed away peacefully in Her sleep, aged 98.
    R.I.P. Mom.

      Just lost my Mom Apr. 6, 2024 to Lewy body dementia. It to this day has been the most horrible experience I've ever had. I miss my Mom more than anything in life. This is a horrible disease. I watched it reduce my Mom to a vegetable. I will need therapy for the rest of my life. I was fortunate enough to start recording the after effects of her melt downs for the past 2 year's. My ultimate goal is to make a movie about the experience. THE WORLD NEEDS TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THIS DISEASE ❗️❗️God bless you for taking care of your Mom. It's an ELITE category for anyone who survives such an ordeal.

      I highly recommend that you see an internist ASAP. They can help you sort out the causes of your symptoms. You may need nutrient deficiency tests, toxicity panels, CT scans, and an appointment with an environmental specialist. Some of your symptoms sound like Mercury toxicity. Others seem like stroke or TIA symptoms.

    Could you help me to clarify something if you have a moment. Is all dementia caused by progressive neurodegenerative disease? What if it is vascular dementia, would this still be considered as neurodegenerative disease? The same with traumatic brain injury leading to dementia? I'm finding it hard to find an answer to this online. Thank you and thank you for the video.

    • @north10
      @north10 Рік тому +5

      Dementia is the umbrella term for all progressive neurodegenerative diseases (i.e., permanent and progressive neuronal death). Vascular dementia is considered a neurodegenerative disease because it creates unrepairable damage to nervous tissue, which leads to complications in the central nervous system (i.e., cognitive decline, daily life impairment, motor problems and much more). It's called "vascular" dementia to distinguish the etiology (i.e., the cause) of the disease.

      The most fucked up experience I've EVER had in my life. There's a reason the suicide rate is over 65%. It literally will push you to the limits. Suicide crossed my mind several times. It paralyzes you and makes you feel helpless. This is why it is important to get help early on. Because once you get locked into your routine you feel trapped and unable to do anything. I was unable to leave my Mom until her later stages. She lost her ability to walk. Only then could i leave and when i came back the house would smell like a public bathroom because of her incontinence. I literally dreaded getting up each day because i became my Momz slave. She finally passed Apr. 6, 2024. I watched her die😢

    Dementia like Alzheimer's and brain injury all have one thing in common. A blockage of blood flow through the neck, through the arteries that feed the brain its life sustenance blood. When this gets pinched off from tight muscles, trauma, ankylo spondylosis that blood flow is decreased and the frontal lobe of the brain is the farthest away from the arteries that comes through the neck so that is the first part that gets starved for memory, Behavior, Etc. The medical community is missing totally what the main sustenance for the brain needs as blood flow, otherwise cells die in the brain

    Any information past 4 minutes on this video does me no good. I won't remember it and I already got the information that I needed in the first couple of minutes. I vaguely remember my doctor saying something to this effect, as far as time.
    And, if that information is accurate, then I am looking at about 4 years before I become a fckn potato. I'm so fckn angry! What can anyone say to any of this? I knew this was coming because it runs in my family.
    Still, my grandmother was 89 years old when it took her out. Right now, I am exactly 30 years away from the age she was when she died. My condition seems to be getting worse and worse and I live alone, which is the only concern I have. And, the worst thing is that I have a shitty relationship with my friends and kids, so I am not even going to tell any of them.
    I wouldn't place this burden on friends and family anyway. The less they know, the better it is for them. I suppose the only thing that I can do is try and die with dignity when my time comes; like my grandmother did. Man, this is all kinds of fckd up.
