Also, people are sometimes over-medicated. Mom's "neurologist" increased her Parkinson's meds until she no longer knew where she was. A kind and knowledgeable nurse recognized the problem and gradually weaned her to half of the dosage she had been taking and she was fine fine fine! The nurse also recommended a competent neurologist and mom lived another decade free of dementia.
My mother never forgets anyone’s names she had 10 children. Early signs I saw was she didn’t have a lot to say she loved to chat and I would call and she didn’t seem to want to talk about much. Then when I visited I would notice her staring at the floor and not really watching the TV. She loved to read and stopped reading books that was a definite sign for me. Then one day she called me and asked me where she lived. It is the saddest thing to go through, to watch someone you love lose themselves but mom has a great spirit and smiles everyday. I miss our old chats but I know she is still in there.
My sister passed away from Lewy Body Dementia. She spent 4 years at her house in Ridgefield, CT, with round the clock caregivers, and the last 3, at the assisted living facility, The Residence, in Darien, CT. I salute the medical staff, including caregivers and hospice, for taking such great care of my sister. My sister was a top journalist for NBC in NY, for over 30 years. She died peacefully, on Jan. 27, 2021
Severe anxiety and depression can have similar symptoms of dementia because your mind is in a “perfect storm” of rumination over So many things. This in turn can affect your memory and you definitely have thought blocking.
Dementia is most sad, I've seen people over 50 when I volunteered at a hospital sometimes think they're in a different place or time and start speaking as if they were. I do hope we develop better care and medicine for aging peoples, we should always be sweet to our elders
My husband is 51, and he is getting diagnosed soon. Early onset Alzheimer's is strongly suspected. He blew up a pot in the kitchen two weeks ago, at 3 am, trying to cook spaghetti in oil. And then he proceeded to blame me, who had been sleeping for 3 hours. Yup, one hell of a disease.
May I encourage you to get support from others who understand, and to read the Psalms of the Bible to find words to express the loss, pain, frustration of your situation and to express hope from a greater source.
Just read this. How are things now? My Dad is being tested, brain scan imminent. We don't know whether he has dementia or other mental health issues. He's horrible to my Mum, blaming her for everything.
My Dad is 91 and during the 2020 and 2021 lockdowns, he missed his usual 3 monthly B12 injections. His memory was always very good, but it has definitely deteriorated over the last 2 years and I suspect that there is a link. He has had some B12 injections in the last 12 months but has missed a few. Of course, not going out of the house for 18 months also took its toll, mentally and physically.
I would suggest that discussing the issue of dementia with your parent, wife husband, etc is NOT a good idea. I have done this with my mother and this has generated significant conflict and hostility so much so that our relationship is now toxic. There is no one else to make decisions for her, see that she is ok. My brother and sister who live over seas aren't interested. I feel so alone and desperate trying to do what is best for her but I am getting nowhere. My mother's memory and cognitive ability have suffered significantly in recent years but she herself refuses to accept this. She can and is frequently extremely hostile and on occasion has lashed out at me when I have tried to help her. I feel so alone and desperate in a lose lose situation. I just wish I had the mother I once knew as a fully functioning intelligent woman.
Is there an organisation in your area like the alzheimer's association or carers association where you can get advice or support? Or speak to your mums GP. It's very hard and exhausting to care for someone on your own. Take care of you. Your health and wellbeing is very important too.
I feel your pain. My mama is the same way. My dad has taken over paying bills and making purchases and she says hes trying to control her. We cant talk to her cuz she says were all attacking her. She forgets stuff and repeats herself constantly and has lost so much weight. She refuses to go to doctor. We just try to talk and spend time with her but it is very hard
@@alexmorgan3435 I know my Dad has dementia . He has on a number of occasions told me he has memory problems. I made the decision not to go to the doctor with him and upset him . We all know that all these treatments for dementia do very little to improve memory even if you catch it early. Maybe one day. I am 67 and I would not want to know from a doctor that I have dementia because there is not one single good drug for it . This is not the case for a lot of other medical problems.
My grandma who passed away last year at the age of 72 thought I was her son, eventhough I was her grandson. She sometimes would tell me to go to the washroom and do my stoll. I thought she was having a flashback from her past. When i went to visit her in 2018 she was normal. Her lifestyle was toxic. She would always be laying down or sitting down and barely got any sunlight. I felt she was so isolated. Sometimes your environment can have such an impact on your well being.
Unfortunately since my grandma has been crippled for years and speaks Spanish , I can’t tell for certain, but I believe my grandma did the same with me, I really hope I just misinterpreted it and she called me his son, rather than him.
Both of my mom's parents passed of alzheimers / dementia. My mom is 62, not diagnosed, but she has some early onset symptoms which are very surprising and often frustrating. She often talks talks talks, sometimes asks me a question, I begin to answer, she continues to talk and I have to wait for her to stop talking and stare at her with my eyebrows raised until she looks at me and says, "What?". And I have to tell her, "You're doing it again. I still don't understand if your hearing has rapidly declined or if you just choose to ignore me everytime I talk. You ask me a question, I try to answer it, you talk over me, and then wonder why you still don't know the answer to the question. You also don't answer my questions half the time, and just ignore me." I thought for awhile that it had to be her hearing, but she shows no other signs of hearing loss (doesn't watch the TV or listen to music on a louder volume, doesn't ask people to speak up when she's on the phone). She also had a ten minute conversation with me which turned into an arguement when I was explaining to her that the time of her online Zoom meeting with someone in the UK (she lives in California) required her to subtract 7 hours from the UK time in order to find out the CA time of the appointment, but she insisted she needed to add 7 hours. I explained it several times, each time in a different way in hopes she would understand but she was very insistent she was right. Also, one day I was driving with her in the passenger seat and got in the lane to turn left. We were at a stop light about 2-3 minutes from home. As soon as I got in the left lane she angrily shouted that I can't go that way. I just looked at her with huge eyes like I was pissed for a few seconds and told her I didn't appreciate her shouting at me, especially something that is 100% wrong. She argued a bit more until the light turned green, I made the turn, and she was able to recognize something on that street... My dad just sat in the back seat quietly because he has terrible hearing haha.
It’s very tempting to get old people diagnosed as dementia sufferers. Younger people - even those in their 50s and 60s and no matter how eminent and well trained they are do not understand how aging changes the mental processes. What is needed in most cases is adaptation of procedures. Just as an old person can’t run to catch a bus any more so it may not be able to speak as fluently. And for the same reason. Energy is required for both. Free use of vocabulary is not something a young person thinks of as requiring energy, but then neither is bounding up a flight of stairs. And even if words do disappear for ever it’s not necessarily a sign of dementia: Old people tend not to concentrate so hard: we need to retrain ourselves to focus on what we are actually doing, as we tend to wander off mentally. And if we haven’t been concentrating, then we haven’t “remembered” it’s Not that we have “forgotten” It’s that we never bothered to remember in the first place. Getting lost is serious of course. Someone who can’t find their way home obviously has a problem. But forgetting words, even names is what we oldies are good at. My grandmother kept forgetting her children’s names but she functioned fine till her death. You start subconsciously prioritising your use of energy - all remembering requires energy, as I said, and if thingummy will do why bother?
@John Lawrence. Thanks for that insight. We used to stare at my grandmother’s, as they named off the whole family, when they were addressing one of us. My mom does it and we laugh at her. I started doing it, in my 40’s. My kids would stand there with their hands folded. Like the rest of us, they know who is being addressed. They stand there and smile at me. Even the 3 year old!! I obviously don’t see the humor, when I do it! I chalk it up to frustration. 🤷🏻♀️
I think there is a difference between not being able to remember a word in conversation and then have it come to you later vs not remembering how to call basic things. One time in conversation, I wanted to say that my cousin sent me some marzipans from Germany, and I forgot the word "marzipan". It came to me halfway into the sentence. Occasionally, a word I know very well just doesn't come to mind during the conversation, but it comes back later. I think he means forgetting very simple everyday words that we use every day and doing it often. For example, my late father who had Alzheimer's call a disposable razer a "scratcher" or call a charger "this thing that give heat." One time he was searching for "black and round". I couldn't figure out what it was. It turned out to be a roll of black automotive tape. He wanted to use it to fix a hole in his slippers. I bought him a new pair. He also forgot how to use a tv remote and a regular landline phone. Also, people can forget today's date, but asking what date it is many times a day, sometimes 15 minutes after someone answered is a problem.
My mom was diagnosed with dementia 5 years ago. I couldn’t see it, and was in denial. Now, she forgets how to change the tv channels. She stops in mid sentence, and can’t remember what she was going to say. Most of all, she loses track of the day. She hardly knows if it’s in the morning, or the evening.
Three times I tricked my husband to consult the doc. Each time he sailed through the GPCOG test and doc sent us away. ‘nothing wrong with you’. That was 2 years ago. He is much worse now and will not go back and I will not trick him again. so no diagnosis, no treatment and no help for me. Patricia.
I went with my father to his Neurologist appointment and he breezed through the tests he was given. Dr said, “You did great! I don’t see any issues.” I said, “can I please tell you specific incidents that are of great concern to me?” He said - of course. The Dr then realized that there is definitely something concerning going on. My father has to do lab work and have an MRI done. I have got to advocate for my father because he cannot do that for himself.
B.S.! My late mother and five of her siblings had dementia! All had Alzheimer's type except an aunt who was a raging alcoholic who developed Vascular (Multi Infarct) dementia because of her alcoholism. I had genetic testing to determine my chance of developing Alzheimer's type dementia because it is definitely inherited!
I remember visiting my grandfather in a Birkenhead old age home in the 1960's. He was fully aware, healthy, but I saw one old lady in a foetal position on a chair, drooling.....she was gone from this world. They were all together....that's life, do your best, be brave.
I think the police should be informed about all patients, so that should the patients do get into trouble, the police can access the details of the patient and help. Two of my friends suffered from Alzheimer’s and elderly lady passed away recently. If you see how these patients behave the way they do, suffering for many years in their lonely world, suffering from this debilitating illness, you will so helpless and sad. Once a smart outgoing lady, deteriorated almost overnight. Thank you so much for the programme.
My mother’s doctor thinks she has dementia. Almost everyone agrees. But mother has Celiac disease and the symptoms are very similar. She’s avoiding her doctor because he refuses to listen to her. I wish I could get her doctor to address the celiac first. She takes a supplement that eliminates her symptoms briefly. Dementia wouldn’t respond like that.
It's so frightening b/c everyone except maybe two of the following, parents/aunts & uncles(6)/grandmother has had some fort of dementia and my mind is beginning to go, along with rapidly growing tremors that occur randomly on my body. Father has Lewy Body. I don't have my 2 grandfathers on the above list bc they died at age 50.
I humbly say that it is becoming a habit , if one person tend to forget a name of a siblings or for the matter a birthday date , then all will start to say that one has dementia, and in the mean time the media keep on bombarding the old to learn technology to keep up with modern days . how could an old person learn more , then one can handle....old age is normal like to not be able to reach the level of young students. one has to talk to old people more slowly and calmly and give then time to think....
My sister suffered for 7 years, with Lewy Body Dementia. Her first 4, were with round the clock caregivers, in her house in Ridgefield, CT. The last 3, were at The Assisted Living facility, The Residence, in Darien, CTShe died peacefully in her s leepm on Jan 27, 2021. Her mind was completely gone. I salute the medical staff, including caregivers, and hospice, for taking such great care of my sister. Blessings and prayers to their families.
The biggest key is planning ahead, because once the patient crashes and burns you’ll be faced with a 3 to 6 month or longer wait list for a personal care home.
I agree, that's why doctors can't always make a correct diagnose. Which brought me to the next question; Do you think people who are not socializing much are more susceptible to dementia? Or do you think it's only a genetic dysfunction of dark matter in the brain? (I could look at statistics but I am not a scientist, and possibly it's not open sourced anyhow, so I am asking here)
@@Snibble I do think isolation can be a factor. My father was mostly a loner and not a particularly nice guy to be around. This caused him to be alone in his final years, and he had a sudden and dramatic decline into dementia, from looking fine, to having to use a diaper in the course of 8 months. I believe his lack of socializing played a big role in his decline.
@@Mario_N64 Thanks man! I think the same thing! Sorry to hear about your father, it's rough to see people going into decline! No matter if they were nice to be around or not. Much appreciated!!!
Such a lovely worming place bupa aged care they really no what you feel I can't thank them eny more the staff a really good my farther was in hear for six years it's just amazing probably 5 ove those years he was going okay and the other just went down hill so fast god please him will he doesn't have to go through it eny longer MATTHEW RENDLE
Hi Matthew, thank you so much for sharing your lovely feedback with us. We are so pleased that you were happy with the care we provided for your Father. We are so sorry for your loss, please let us know if there is anything else we can do for you.
A serious subject. I am elderly and when I read the signs I have most of them. The most irritating is my slow recall.Searching for a name or whatever and can’t remember.Then what I have been mentally searching for for suddenly pops into my head a while after the event. Really frustrating . As regards memory I think doors have something to do with it. Every time you walk you walk through a door the slate is wiped clean! Sorry I jest it is a serious subject. I understand Alzheimer’s doesn’t usually Occur after the age of 64! It’s other forms of Dementia that occur after that age. I really think we live to long. Unfortunately I have longevity in my genes so do have a plan B. J
That's a very interesting take on things. I've often thought the same about longevity, I have thopposite problm in my fam most die b4 60 and the remaining few lived very long to 90+ a strange dichotomy. I won't be one of the ones who goes on and on but those that have the dementia is then a massive stress to them a caregivers. I agree with you I think we do live too long, early death is awful but unless you're extremely health and mentally on par it's then too long. It's refreshing to hear someone say the same. I've family who are forgetting and it's going to be a huge strain personally I'd rather for myself have the option whether I wanted to continue or not(but I think that's controversial), but it's how I feel having suffered ill health myself 😊
Good tip about going to dr....telling the patient they are going for a cold, and mentioning to the receptionist, we are coming for the other....thank you. Xxx
Winner of a video, I've been looking for "how do you remember names and faces?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Piyoren Incredible Prepotence - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? It is a good exclusive guide for discovering how to boost your memory power without the normal expense. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my co-worker got amazing results with it.
Is there really any help for memory loss? I have been having some problem remembering words but I can not find anything to help, if anyone knows something please tell us.
So why in the world would a doctor give a dementia patient antipsychotic (Seroquel and Haldol) drugs for sleep. The patients are trying to be able to think and the doctors make it worse.
Cause the industry is privately run,90%profits go 2 share holders ,means less staff,less caring and more sedatives 2 make it easier 4 staff. Although this is well known,people don't really care bout old people except close family.
My father is 95 and has signs of Lewy Body Dementia. He has hallucinations and delusions. He doesnt have much memory loss. The dr. insists it's Parkinsons, but he's been hallucinating for monhs, and we only recently discovered the slight tremor in one hand. The police brought him home last week at 3:30 in the morning- he was sure someone had gone into his room and told him to evacuate - then he was wandering down the street looking for us. He is absoutely certain that it really happened, and refuses to accept that he's having hallucinations - he blames the police for bringing him home and writing a report because the fact that he was up at 3:30 a.m. wandering doesn't strike him as being odd at all. As I understand it, with Parkinsons the tremors come first and then down the line the hallucinations start. With my father it is way the other way around.
My father passed away aged 94. He was mentally alert till the end. He did though go through a period when he suffered from delusions as a result of medication prescribed for a prostate problem. It was very alarming and had started so suddenly that I suspected his one new medication. I read through the information supplied and there it was: can cause hallucinations in one in a thousand. He was a "lucky winner"... We stopped that medication, it wasn't haven't much effect on his prostate problem anyway, and his hallucinations stopped as well. He was convinced that some hobo was crawling under his bed every night to go to sleep. Very strange, the different scenarios... Perhaps you should read all the info on each of your father's prescriptions to see if hallucinations are a possibility. Doctors are familiar with the most common of ill effects from medications but not all.
Solo Mano said a doctor isn't familiar with all side effects of medicines, but a pharmacist is. They would be a good resource to check for possible side effects from your Dad's medicines. Good luck. My Dad died of Alzheimers. A horrible experience for everyone involved.
@@SomebodysLife not necessarily. If it’s not on both of your parents sides, you may not get it. There is a test your doctor can do to tell for sure. It’s a blood test. I don’t want to ask my boyfriend to take the test because if that is in his future, I’m sure he doesn’t want to know. My prayers it’s not in yours. ❤️
@@deborahthomas3539 This is so true,my Dad's Mother lived till 89 and could say her ABC'S not only normally but backwards without giving it a second thought, my Dad's side of the family had No Dementia whatsoever but on my Mothers side is completely different,all 10 of her Siblings has either passed from it already, are currently dealing with it, either at home or in a rest home facility and the younger ones are being tested for it and it is just Sad on many levels! !!
Dementia has good days and bad days and is not terminal. Alzheimer's is also dementia but it is a consistent downhill and is a death sentence with the average life span being 8 to 10 years after diagnosis.
Dementia is NOT a disease. It is a number of conditions resulting from a disease, one being Alzheimers. Some of the others are Lewy Bodies Disease, Parkinson's disease and Vascular Dementia.
I have noticed in elderly family members, that they have almost no short term memory. A simple task can be explained to them, and less than a minute later they will ask you to repeat it, several times. Also they will tell the same story from long ago, or ask the same question numerous times during the same visit. I feel this is the brain doing what it can still do.
Short term memory is lost. Long term memory stays in tact. They may forget who their children are at times. I agree with you, I feel this the brain doing what it can still do. It’s sad watching someone fail away like that. I hope I don’t develop dementia when I get older. I have seizures. They have wiped out my long term memory. If I eventually have it, I won’t have any memory.
True. I'm 85 and constantly repeat myself. But I remember so much since I was 3 years old. Thankfully I had a good family and mostly happy life with cousins, aunts and uncles. Praising the Lord who carries me every day, especially when I lose things or need guidance. Oh, I use to be a great speller. Now I have to go to Google sometimes. The older one gets, the more they reach out to God...and he's there!
My dad has been in the same state all his life and get's lost in places he he should know. also has these mean out breakes with my mother for no reson at all? he is 73 years old is this Dementia?
It definitely sounds like dementia. And as you get older, you do get more frightened and more distrusting of people, and therefore more angry to try to protect yourself from them. This is happening to me. I had no idea. I have been treated very badly by perfect strangers and hospital staff who are actually cruel, so I do understand why people have their guard up and may come across as difficult.
If your having bathing issues, try Nilaqua "Towel Off" Shampoo and Body Wash. It is an absolute god send - water based and really removes dirt etc but doesn't require additional water or rinsing. You just towel it off.
Maybe someone with dementia should not have to do their own shopping etc. They should do only what they can. Why do children accept that they were taken care of but maybe they should just get you put to sleep?
This is sad but true. My mother had dementia & my father had died during this stage in her life so one of my siblings and myself flew to her State & helped get her things settled then moved her to our state where we both had guest rooms and put things from her home so she would hopefully not feel so uprooted. We would have her 1 month here then one month at my sisters home so we had it a bit easier than a lot of caregivers. She struggled with it for 11 years but there was always a small piece of her there. It is hard to care for someone with progressed dementia but it was hard raising us from babies through those sometimes troubled teen years. She did not Ignor us or make us fend for ourselves so it’s not just a “ nice” thing to do it should be an automatic decision for your parents or other loved ones.
I support euthanasia for Alzheimer’s and seriously debilitated people with dementia. However, I also believe it is an individual choice which should be made before such a devastating illness takes hold. As for my precious aunt who had Alzheimer’s, I felt the real crime was in keeping her alive as I watched her suffer with with pain, fear and confusion.
There’s no cure for this. What’s the reason to keep beating a dead horse for a diagnosis. It doesn’t make it better knowing that’s what you have. Just live and let live.
Im in my mid 20s. And i can't remember anything which is mildly critical. I can't remember what i study. Can't remember lanes. Had to rely on navigation even if i went through the same route multiple times. sometimes can't remember people names. I've always neglected it but i just failed my semester and i don't know if i can continue pursuing anything with my poor memory.
That sounds more to me like depression, anxiety or ADHD. I often feel things are being deleted from my memory. Please seek professional advice. It is extremely rare for someone in your age to have a form of dementia. The more you stress about these matters the worse it will get so the sooner you can get an diagnosis the better you will be able to process and adapt your life for it, whether it is medications or treatment or therapy, CBT therapy is very helpful for mental health illnesses and I personally highly recommend it.
Sometimes Histamine producing foods can make ones memory a mess! Eliminate histamine producing foods for a month and see if your head clears up at all. This happened to me and it was such a relief to know I was having an adverse reaction and. It truly losing my mind!
Useless video. Why does he say early signs are forgetting names of children and putting food in wrong places and not fridge etc. Surely this is not EARLY signs. It’s too late by then you can’t turn it back. With today’s technology why haven’t they found out a way of testing before this happens Then he says there are ways that we can help when you reach this stage but doesn’t discuss anything. !!!!!! Honestly I I found it a bit of a waste of time he is only stating what we already know. My mother had vascular dementia and I’m very concerned it could be hereditary.
I’m sufficiently scared. A friend of mine gets so annoyed with me when she brings up something that we talked about yesterday, and I have no clue as to what she is talking about. Anything she brings up to me -- where we went, what we did, who we saw, etc. a lot of the time I have no idea of what she is talking about. She could say something to me now -- and in 10 minutes bring the subject up again - and I don’t know what she is talking about. Now I am pretending that I know what she said to me. It is less painful than the look or the frustration she gets when I tell her that I don’t remember. My mother died of Alzheimer’s at 87. I’m 68. (I think ) Does anyone think that I should be worried ?
Well, it’s been over a year now. I’m no longer having that really bad memory problem. It was after I had hip replacement surgery. I still am forgetful and always have been but nothing like it was after that surgery. That is good thinking though to wonder if someone close can be making you think something is worse than it actually is. That thought did cross my mind months ago -- sad to say.
Telling lies about tv programes passing them off as his life experience,becoming violent ,shouting at top of his voice ,hiding things ,telling lies ,very violent ,get away from elderly partner could do very bad physical damage ,if its a frail older woman ,eating the exact same foods every day ,if making food for them selves man aged 74 runs in family,
Can the fact that they grew up on a farm and possibly grew up on a farm that might have used DDT back when they were young pause this? Obviously since I'm in my fifties I have a vested interest in knowing if this is something that will be passed on to me
So if it's not inherited why would three members out of five of my mom's family develop Alzheimer's by the time they're 75 and one of the members died at 65 and one is the baby of the family and not yet over 75. Recap. 5 kids, 1 died at 65 from cancer, two had Alzheimer's, another one is having tons of memory problems that seemed to indicate Alzheimer's and one of the baby of the family 4 years behind the next sibling
How early can you get Alzheimer's disease and what are the Early signs. My mom had this terrible disease and I am wondering if it's hereditary or genetic. Someone had told me something and I forgot what they told me like 5 seconds later.
I understand exactly what you going through,Natural herbs has really created contentment in my life, totally free from dementia after long time battle, I suffered alot, and lot of symptoms couldn't take care of my family anymore but now I'm feeling better after taking the herbs and cleansing, you also need to have a comfortable life get to know the herbal doctor his medicine are really wonderful! dr isibor natural root and herbs helped me beat Dementia of 10 years in less than 3 weeks permanently 💯. You can also reach out to Dr isibor great spell caster for permanent healing....
It's far more likely she's under a lot of stress... that creates the same symptoms, but they are temporary until the stress subsides. Talk to her about this video and your fears about how she's acting. Let her still be your mum and be the adult who soothes your fears... that's her role to live out, not yours.
That woman takes extraordinary care of her appearance. Her voice sounds older than she looks. I've heard that coconut oil is brain food and supposed to help with dementia. Tablespoon or two a day.
my grandpa died when i was 10 and he had dementia aphasia. i’ll never forget when my poor grandma was trying to get him to take his morning pill, and he dropped the pill in the glass of water and drank the water. he never did that
CAC Tagar (Valeriana wallichii) is the main ingredient used for the preparation of this churna. This churna is very beneficial in neurological, psychological, and digestive disorders. In low dosage, it calms the mind, strengthens the nerves, and prevents convulsions. It improves the strength of the heart muscles and helps in reducing the blood pressure. It is the best vata and kapha pacifier churna. Tagaradi churna improves the quality of sleep and induces the sound sleep. It elevates the mood and helps the patients in reducing stress and mood disorders.
Its not genetic. My grandma died at 87 from stroke and until last day was a business woman. Her daughter my mother died at 87 from Alzheimers diagnosed at 80. Her older sister still lives no dementia. However my mother had a stroke in her fifties.
Hi Danny. Thanks for getting in touch. I believe children can get Dementia, although it is very rare. It would be best to speak with a medical professional about the symptoms you have to ensure you receive the best advice. I wish you all the best, BC

Your balance can be effected!?? My mom has all the signs she'll complain about shoulder pain make an Apt. For it and forget to tell the doc about the pain... shell tell him other stuff and then come home and be lile omg I forgot to tell her what I made the Apt. For. She stumbles a lot too. Does this sound like the onset!?? Please anyone have an idea!??
You need to go with her to her doctor appointments. If you can, get her to give you permission to speak with the doctor when needed. Very important. Good luck.
Had a lady friend I enjoyed her time we spent together but she got were I was her enemy the government was after her the police I didn’t know what was going on she moved on I miss her she had angry 😡 fits
Also, people are sometimes over-medicated. Mom's "neurologist" increased her Parkinson's meds until she no longer knew where she was. A kind and knowledgeable nurse recognized the problem and gradually weaned her to half of the dosage she had been taking and she was fine fine fine! The nurse also recommended a competent neurologist and mom lived another decade free of dementia.
Would you consider giving her CBD ? Does that help ?
@carolgiangreco6548 Awesome
My mother never forgets anyone’s names she had 10 children. Early signs I saw was she didn’t have a lot to say she loved to chat and I would call and she didn’t seem to want to talk about much. Then when I visited I would notice her staring at the floor and not really watching the TV. She loved to read and stopped reading books that was a definite sign for me. Then one day she called me and asked me where she lived. It is the saddest thing to go through, to watch someone you love lose themselves but mom has a great spirit and smiles everyday. I miss our old chats but I know she is still in there.

My sister passed away from Lewy Body Dementia. She spent 4 years at her house in Ridgefield, CT, with round the clock caregivers, and the last 3, at the assisted living facility, The Residence, in Darien, CT. I salute the medical staff, including caregivers and hospice, for taking such great care of my sister. My sister was a top journalist for NBC in NY, for over 30 years. She died peacefully, on Jan. 27, 2021
My journey begins now.. my gramma was just diagnosed... I’m sorry for your loss.
Hugs ❤
🙏💐May you find comfort in your happy memories. So sorry for your tremendous loss.

Severe anxiety and depression can have similar symptoms of dementia because your mind is in a “perfect storm” of rumination over
So many things. This in turn can affect your memory and you definitely have thought blocking.
I agree and then when people are put in tablets they develop the symptoms of dementia. The side effects from the tablets are the symptoms
True.
Exactly
Yep
Dementia is most sad, I've seen people over 50 when I volunteered at a hospital sometimes think they're in a different place or time and start speaking as if they were. I do hope we develop better care and medicine for aging peoples, we should always be sweet to our elders
My mother went backwards. She was a emotionally abusive person to us. She now behave the same as when we were kids., tearing us apart
Hello Joyce
How are yo doing today?
My dad, too. He's 82 now and acts as dementia ridden now as did 50 years ago.
My husband is 51, and he is getting diagnosed soon. Early onset Alzheimer's is strongly suspected.
He blew up a pot in the kitchen two weeks ago, at 3 am, trying to cook spaghetti in oil. And then he proceeded to blame me, who had been sleeping for 3 hours.
Yup, one hell of a disease.
It's the worse. Sorry for your situation
My father is suffering from dimentia at 54 😭😭😭
May I encourage you to get support from others who understand, and to read the Psalms of the Bible to find words to express the loss, pain, frustration of your situation and to express hope from a greater source.
Just read this. How are things now? My Dad is being tested, brain scan imminent. We don't know whether he has dementia or other mental health issues. He's horrible to my Mum, blaming her for everything.
@@shubhammahant7680 My God, my heart goes out you.
Vit B12 depletion is also often mis diagnosed as dementia, especially linked to diabetes 2.
B12 injection every three months can very helpful.
Thank you. I'm going to try it on my mother. God bless you for sharing this.
My Dad is 91 and during the 2020 and 2021 lockdowns, he missed his usual 3 monthly B12 injections. His memory was always very good, but it has definitely deteriorated over the last 2 years and I suspect that there is a link. He has had some B12 injections in the last 12 months but has missed a few. Of course, not going out of the house for 18 months also took its toll, mentally and physically.

I would suggest that discussing the issue of dementia with your parent, wife husband, etc is NOT a good idea. I have done this with my mother and this has generated significant conflict and hostility so much so that our relationship is now toxic. There is no one else to make decisions for her, see that she is ok. My brother and sister who live over seas aren't interested. I feel so alone and desperate trying to do what is best for her but I am getting nowhere. My mother's memory and cognitive ability have suffered significantly in recent years but she herself refuses to accept this. She can and is frequently extremely hostile and on occasion has lashed out at me when I have tried to help her. I feel so alone and desperate in a lose lose situation. I just wish I had the mother I once knew as a fully functioning intelligent woman.
Is there an organisation in your area like the alzheimer's association or carers association where you can get advice or support? Or speak to your mums GP. It's very hard and exhausting to care for someone on your own. Take care of you. Your health and wellbeing is very important too.
Just take it one day at a time. Don't swear the small stuff and it's all small stuff. One day she will not be here and u will miss her.
I feel your pain. My mama is the same way. My dad has taken over paying bills and making purchases and she says hes trying to control her. We cant talk to her cuz she says were all attacking her. She forgets stuff and repeats herself constantly and has lost so much weight. She refuses to go to doctor. We just try to talk and spend time with her but it is very hard
@@cfar76 It's very difficult and exhausting.
@@alexmorgan3435 I know my Dad has dementia . He has on a number of occasions told me he has memory problems. I made the decision not to go to the doctor with him and upset him . We all know that all these treatments for dementia do very little to improve memory even if you catch it early. Maybe one day. I am 67 and I would not want to know from a doctor that I have dementia because there is not one single good drug for it . This is not the case for a lot of other medical problems.
Abandon all hope if your relative gets Dementia in any form. There is no upside and it gets worse every month.
My grandma who passed away last year at the age of 72 thought I was her son, eventhough I was her grandson. She sometimes would tell me to go to the washroom and do my stoll. I thought she was having a flashback from her past. When i went to visit her in 2018 she was normal. Her lifestyle was toxic.
She would always be laying down or sitting down and barely got any sunlight. I felt she was so isolated. Sometimes your environment can have such an impact on your well being.
Unfortunately since my grandma has been crippled for years and speaks Spanish , I can’t tell for certain, but I believe my grandma did the same with me, I really hope I just misinterpreted it and she called me his son, rather than him.
Both of my mom's parents passed of alzheimers / dementia. My mom is 62, not diagnosed, but she has some early onset symptoms which are very surprising and often frustrating.
She often talks talks talks, sometimes asks me a question, I begin to answer, she continues to talk and I have to wait for her to stop talking and stare at her with my eyebrows raised until she looks at me and says, "What?". And I have to tell her, "You're doing it again. I still don't understand if your hearing has rapidly declined or if you just choose to ignore me everytime I talk. You ask me a question, I try to answer it, you talk over me, and then wonder why you still don't know the answer to the question. You also don't answer my questions half the time, and just ignore me." I thought for awhile that it had to be her hearing, but she shows no other signs of hearing loss (doesn't watch the TV or listen to music on a louder volume, doesn't ask people to speak up when she's on the phone).
She also had a ten minute conversation with me which turned into an arguement when I was explaining to her that the time of her online Zoom meeting with someone in the UK (she lives in California) required her to subtract 7 hours from the UK time in order to find out the CA time of the appointment, but she insisted she needed to add 7 hours. I explained it several times, each time in a different way in hopes she would understand but she was very insistent she was right.
Also, one day I was driving with her in the passenger seat and got in the lane to turn left. We were at a stop light about 2-3 minutes from home. As soon as I got in the left lane she angrily shouted that I can't go that way. I just looked at her with huge eyes like I was pissed for a few seconds and told her I didn't appreciate her shouting at me, especially something that is 100% wrong. She argued a bit more until the light turned green, I made the turn, and she was able to recognize something on that street... My dad just sat in the back seat quietly because he has terrible hearing haha.
It’s very tempting to get old people diagnosed as dementia sufferers.
Younger people - even those in their 50s and 60s and no matter how eminent and well trained they are do not understand how aging changes the mental processes. What is needed in most cases is adaptation of procedures. Just as an old person can’t run to catch a bus any more so it may not be able to speak as fluently. And for the same reason. Energy is required for both. Free use of vocabulary is not something a young person thinks of as requiring energy, but then neither is bounding up a flight of stairs. And even if words do disappear for ever it’s not necessarily a sign of dementia:
Old people tend not to concentrate so hard: we need to retrain ourselves to focus on what we are actually doing, as we tend to wander off mentally. And if we haven’t been concentrating, then we haven’t “remembered” it’s
Not that we have “forgotten”
It’s that we never bothered to remember in the first place.
Getting lost is serious of course. Someone who can’t find their way home obviously has a problem. But forgetting words, even names is what we oldies are good at. My grandmother kept forgetting her children’s names but she functioned fine till her death. You start subconsciously prioritising your use of energy - all remembering requires energy, as I said, and if thingummy will do why bother?
@John Lawrence. Thanks for that insight. We used to stare at my grandmother’s, as they named off the whole family, when they were addressing one of us. My mom does it and we laugh at her. I started doing it, in my 40’s. My kids would stand there with their hands folded. Like the rest of us, they know who is being addressed. They stand there and smile at me. Even the 3 year old!! I obviously don’t see the humor, when I do it! I chalk it up to frustration. 🤷🏻♀️
I think there is a difference between not being able to remember a word in conversation and then have it come to you later vs not remembering how to call basic things. One time in conversation, I wanted to say that my cousin sent me some marzipans from Germany, and I forgot the word "marzipan". It came to me halfway into the sentence. Occasionally, a word I know very well just doesn't come to mind during the conversation, but it comes back later. I think he means forgetting very simple everyday words that we use every day and doing it often. For example, my late father who had Alzheimer's call a disposable razer a "scratcher" or call a charger "this thing that give heat." One time he was searching for "black and round". I couldn't figure out what it was. It turned out to be a roll of black automotive tape. He wanted to use it to fix a hole in his slippers. I bought him a new pair. He also forgot how to use a tv remote and a regular landline phone. Also, people can forget today's date, but asking what date it is many times a day, sometimes 15 minutes after someone answered is a problem.
This show is very informative. Thank you!
Vitamin B12 deficiency can lead to dementia if untreated.
Thanks for sharing and also to these two nice people who discussed this useful information.
My mom was diagnosed with dementia 5 years ago. I couldn’t see it, and was in denial. Now, she forgets how to change the tv channels. She stops in mid sentence, and can’t remember what she was going to say. Most of all, she loses track of the day. She hardly knows if it’s in the morning, or the evening.
Three times I tricked my husband to consult the doc. Each time he sailed through the GPCOG test and doc sent us away. ‘nothing wrong with you’. That was 2 years ago. He is much worse now and will not go back and I will not trick him again. so no diagnosis, no treatment and no help for me. Patricia.
I went with my father to his Neurologist appointment and he breezed through the tests he was given. Dr said, “You did great! I don’t see any issues.” I said, “can I please tell you specific incidents that are of great concern to me?” He said - of course. The Dr then realized that there is definitely something concerning going on. My father has to do lab work and have an MRI done. I have got to advocate for my father because he cannot do that for himself.
B.S.! My late mother and five of her siblings had dementia! All had Alzheimer's type except an aunt who was a raging alcoholic who developed Vascular (Multi Infarct) dementia because of her alcoholism. I had genetic testing to determine my chance of developing Alzheimer's type dementia because it is definitely inherited!
I remember visiting my grandfather in a Birkenhead old age home in the 1960's. He was fully aware, healthy, but I saw one old lady in a foetal position on a chair, drooling.....she was gone from this world. They were all together....that's life, do your best, be brave.
20 years ago I was a member of mensa, now I have an I. Q of 70 vascular whatsaname.
I’m the same. Mensan but know my memory has gone- looking up spelling etc. I have Giant Cell Arteritis.
I think the police should be informed about all patients, so that should the patients do get into trouble, the police can access the details of the patient and help. Two of my friends suffered from Alzheimer’s and elderly lady passed away recently. If you see how these patients behave the way they do, suffering for many years in their lonely world, suffering from this debilitating illness, you will so helpless and sad. Once a smart outgoing lady, deteriorated almost overnight. Thank you so much for the programme.
My mother’s doctor thinks she has dementia. Almost everyone agrees. But mother has Celiac disease and the symptoms are very similar. She’s avoiding her doctor because he refuses to listen to her. I wish I could get her doctor to address the celiac first. She takes a supplement that eliminates her symptoms briefly. Dementia wouldn’t respond like that.
It's so frightening b/c everyone except maybe two of the following, parents/aunts & uncles(6)/grandmother has had some fort of dementia and my mind is beginning to go, along with rapidly growing tremors that occur randomly on my body. Father has Lewy Body. I don't have my 2 grandfathers on the above list bc they died at age 50.
I humbly say that it is becoming a habit , if one person tend to forget a name of a siblings or for the matter a birthday date , then all will start to say that one has dementia, and in the mean time the media keep on bombarding the old to learn technology to keep up with modern days . how could an old person learn more , then one can handle....old age is normal like to not be able to reach the level of young students. one has to talk to old people more slowly and calmly and give then time to think....
Thank you so much for this programme.

You sound completely ignorant.
Hi Caterina, how are you doing?
Yes, my grandfather had Alzheimer’s disease in his late 80’s. He could no longer walk, talk, and in the end swallow.
Hello Jennifer
How are you doing today?
This doesn't sound like EARLY signs at all!! When you forget the names of your kids or have speech apperement it's well on its way in my opinion.
My thought exactly. That sounds like severe dementia.
Early signs is mostly personality changes. Close family can instantly notice that.
I agree, that's why doctors can't always make a correct diagnose. Which brought me to the next question; Do you think people who are not socializing much are more susceptible to dementia? Or do you think it's only a genetic dysfunction of dark matter in the brain? (I could look at statistics but I am not a scientist, and possibly it's not open sourced anyhow, so I am asking here)
@@Snibble I do think isolation can be a factor. My father was mostly a loner and not a particularly nice guy to be around. This caused him to be alone in his final years, and he had a sudden and dramatic decline into dementia, from looking fine, to having to use a diaper in the course of 8 months. I believe his lack of socializing played a big role in his decline.
@@Mario_N64 Thanks man! I think the same thing! Sorry to hear about your father, it's rough to see people going into decline! No matter if they were nice to be around or not. Much appreciated!!!

A serious subject. I am elderly and when I read the signs I have most of them. The most irritating is my slow recall.Searching for a name or whatever and can’t remember.Then what I have been mentally searching for
for suddenly pops into my head a while after the event. Really frustrating .
As regards memory I think doors have something to do with it. Every time you walk you walk through a
door the slate is wiped clean! Sorry I jest it is a serious subject. I understand Alzheimer’s doesn’t usually
Occur after the age of 64! It’s other forms of Dementia that occur after that age. I really think we live to long.
Unfortunately I have longevity in my genes so do have a plan B. J
That's a very interesting take on things. I've often thought the same about longevity, I have thopposite problm in my fam most die b4 60 and the remaining few lived very long to 90+ a strange dichotomy. I won't be one of the ones who goes on and on but those that have the dementia is then a massive stress to them a caregivers. I agree with you I think we do live too long, early death is awful but unless you're extremely health and mentally on par it's then too long. It's refreshing to hear someone say the same. I've family who are forgetting and it's going to be a huge strain personally I'd rather for myself have the option whether I wanted to continue or not(but I think that's controversial), but it's how I feel having suffered ill health myself 😊
Good tip about going to dr....telling the patient they are going for a cold, and mentioning to the receptionist, we are coming for the other....thank you. Xxx
Winner of a video, I've been looking for "how do you remember names and faces?" for a while now, and I think this has helped.

I thought that a person with suspected dementia should see a neurologist, not a GP.
In UK you need to get referred by your GP to see any kind of specialist.
Gp orders scans to rule out tumours and such, and the he refers to a neurologist and a psychiatrist, who then test and diagnose.
THANK U! AND GOD BLESS OUR MEMORIES.
Helloooday? Mary
How are you doing t
My mother had LBD and was in the middle of hallucinations when we realized something was wrong.
So why in the world would a doctor give a dementia patient antipsychotic (Seroquel and Haldol) drugs for sleep. The patients are trying to be able to think and the doctors make it worse.
Huge business!!!!!
Yep!! Im a nurse, and I still dont understand that course of treatment after 30 years in my profession.🤷♀️😢🤷♂️
Cause the industry is privately run,90%profits go 2 share holders ,means less staff,less caring and more sedatives 2 make it easier 4 staff. Although this is well known,people don't really care bout old people except close family.
I believe the medication causes the disease. The medication causes eye problems, hallucinations etc I don’t believe they benefit people at all
sgt shriver an advisor to a president couldnt remember if he was a man or woman. txs this is an important issue!
Very informative and interesting.
My father is 95 and has signs of Lewy Body Dementia. He has hallucinations and delusions. He doesnt have much memory loss. The dr. insists it's Parkinsons, but he's been hallucinating for monhs, and we only recently discovered the slight tremor in one hand. The police brought him home last week at 3:30 in the morning- he was sure someone had gone into his room and told him to evacuate - then he was wandering down the street looking for us. He is absoutely certain that it really happened, and refuses to accept that he's having hallucinations - he blames the police for bringing him home and writing a report because the fact that he was up at 3:30 a.m. wandering doesn't strike him as being odd at all. As I understand it, with Parkinsons the tremors come first and then down the line the hallucinations start. With my father it is way the other way around.
My father passed away aged 94. He was mentally alert till the end. He did though go through a period when he suffered from delusions as a result of medication prescribed for a prostate problem. It was very alarming and had started so suddenly that I suspected his one new medication. I read through the information supplied and there it was: can cause hallucinations in one in a thousand. He was a "lucky winner"... We stopped that medication, it wasn't haven't much effect on his prostate problem anyway, and his hallucinations stopped as well. He was convinced that some hobo was crawling under his bed every night to go to sleep. Very strange, the different scenarios... Perhaps you should read all the info on each of your father's prescriptions to see if hallucinations are a possibility. Doctors are familiar with the most common of ill effects from medications but not all.
Solo Mano said a doctor isn't familiar with all side effects of medicines, but a pharmacist is. They would be a good resource to check for possible side effects from your Dad's medicines. Good luck. My Dad died of Alzheimers. A horrible experience for everyone involved.

I have noticed in elderly family members, that they have almost no short term memory. A simple task can be explained to them, and less than a minute later they will ask you to repeat it, several times. Also they will tell the same story from long ago, or ask the same question numerous times during the same visit. I feel this is the brain doing what it can still do.
eh some of them just have nothing else to talk about. it’s not like they went to a party over the weekend.
Short term memory is lost. Long term memory stays in tact. They may forget who their children are at times. I agree with you, I feel this the brain doing what it can still do. It’s sad watching someone fail away like that. I hope I don’t develop dementia when I get older. I have seizures. They have wiped out my long term memory. If I eventually have it, I won’t have any memory.

It definitely sounds like dementia. And as you get older, you do get more frightened and more distrusting of people, and therefore more angry to try to protect yourself from them. This is happening to me. I had no idea. I have been treated very badly by perfect strangers and hospital staff who are actually cruel, so I do understand why people have their guard up and may come across as difficult.
If your having bathing issues, try Nilaqua "Towel Off" Shampoo and Body Wash. It is an absolute god send - water based and really removes dirt etc but doesn't require additional water or rinsing. You just towel it off.
I thought it WAS hereditary?? My mum passed away in Feb this year (‘21), she had dementia. I’m so scared I’m going to get it too.
Take sometime with vit B12..
Stay connected with you and take natural supplements they will help! You won’t dementia if you can beat when it comes :)
Maybe someone with dementia should not have to do their own shopping etc. They should do only what they can. Why do children accept that they were taken care of but maybe they should just get you put to sleep?
Because in most countries of the world euthanasia for human beings is murder.
This is sad but true. My mother had dementia & my father had died during this stage in her life so one of my siblings and myself flew to her State & helped get her things settled then moved her to our state where we both had guest rooms and put things from her home so she would hopefully not feel so uprooted. We would have her 1 month here then one month at my sisters home so we had it a bit easier than a lot of caregivers. She struggled with it for 11 years but there was always a small piece of her there. It is hard to care for someone with progressed dementia but it was hard raising us from babies through those sometimes troubled teen years.
She did not Ignor us or make us fend for ourselves so it’s not just a “ nice” thing to do it should be an automatic decision for your parents or other loved ones.
I support euthanasia for Alzheimer’s and seriously debilitated people with dementia. However, I also believe it is an individual choice which should be made before such a devastating illness takes hold. As for my precious aunt who had Alzheimer’s, I felt the real crime was in keeping her alive as I watched her suffer with with pain, fear and confusion.

There’s no cure for this. What’s the reason to keep beating a dead horse for a diagnosis. It doesn’t make it better knowing that’s what you have. Just live and let live.
So true
Im in my mid 20s. And i can't remember anything which is mildly critical. I can't remember what i study. Can't remember lanes. Had to rely on navigation even if i went through the same route multiple times. sometimes can't remember people names. I've always neglected it but i just failed my semester and i don't know if i can continue pursuing anything with my poor memory.
That sounds more to me like depression, anxiety or ADHD. I often feel things are being deleted from my memory. Please seek professional advice. It is extremely rare for someone in your age to have a form of dementia. The more you stress about these matters the worse it will get so the sooner you can get an diagnosis the better you will be able to process and adapt your life for it, whether it is medications or treatment or therapy, CBT therapy is very helpful for mental health illnesses and I personally highly recommend it.

I’m sufficiently scared. A friend of mine gets so annoyed with me when she brings up something that we talked about yesterday, and I have no clue as to what she is talking about. Anything she brings up to me -- where we went, what we did, who we saw, etc. a lot of the time I have no idea of what she is talking about. She could say something to me now -- and in 10 minutes bring the subject up again - and I don’t know what she is talking about. Now I am pretending that I know what she said to me. It is less painful than the look or the frustration she gets when I tell her that I don’t remember. My mother died of Alzheimer’s at 87. I’m 68. (I think ) Does anyone think that I should be worried ?
A UTI infection can mimic the symptoms of dementia - also have your Vitamin B-12 level checked. Most of all, get yourself to your GP.
Yes. Visit a doctor, a dementia/cognitive specialist.
Consume vit B 12 sir..
Make sure your friend is not putting you under illusions. Are you only like that around that friend
Well, it’s been over a year now. I’m no longer having that really bad memory problem. It was after I had hip replacement surgery. I still am forgetful and always have been but nothing like it was after that surgery. That is good thinking though to wonder if someone close can be making you think something is worse than it actually is. That thought did cross my mind months ago -- sad to say.
The doctor asked my mom to say twenty words beginning with “C.”

Sadly, what you perceive to be lies are so very real to a dementia sufferer that they are not lies at all.
Spending to mucho time on Ya Tuba is unmistakelly demento
My friend had genetic testing for Altzeimers. She tested positive for Altzeimers gene.
Can you tell on MRI. I have problems with Flourinated Chemotherapy drugs. Ciprofloxacin.
I would have liked a proper explanation of what Alzheimer’s is not just saying it is a common cause of dementia!
Can the fact that they grew up on a farm and possibly grew up on a farm that might have used DDT back when they were young pause this? Obviously since I'm in my fifties I have a vested interest in knowing if this is something that will be passed on to me
*Pump Head* from open heart xs 2 have had bouts of this... it's very sad. Scary at xs also... Vascular dementia is so very sad....
My sister is 64 and recently was diagnosed with early stage dementia
Try to chew frekinsence with honey..then remove the gum..
So if it's not inherited why would three members out of five of my mom's family develop Alzheimer's by the time they're 75 and one of the members died at 65 and one is the baby of the family and not yet over 75. Recap. 5 kids, 1 died at 65 from cancer, two had Alzheimer's, another one is having tons of memory problems that seemed to indicate Alzheimer's and one of the baby of the family 4 years behind the next sibling
How early can you get Alzheimer's disease and what are the Early signs. My mom had this terrible disease and I am wondering if it's hereditary or genetic. Someone had told me something and I forgot what they told me like 5 seconds later.

Maybe it’s your calling to be a nurse to help people x
cause it will affect you or some one you know sooner or later. fact.
Concern about helping someone or thinking about urself. In my case..
My mums only 44 years old and you described her 😭😭😭😭😭😭 what if she gets early dementia I can’t live without her I’m only 12
its okay, life gets better. Believe me
It's not likely that she will have it. Don't worry too much about it. Early dementia is quite rare.
@@Mark-wr8td damn seeing trollge makes me sad
It's far more likely she's under a lot of stress... that creates the same symptoms, but they are temporary until the stress subsides. Talk to her about this video and your fears about how she's acting. Let her still be your mum and be the adult who soothes your fears... that's her role to live out, not yours.

That woman takes extraordinary care of her appearance. Her voice sounds older than she looks.
I've heard that coconut oil is brain food and supposed to help with dementia. Tablespoon or two a day.
my grandpa died when i was 10 and he had dementia aphasia. i’ll never forget when my poor grandma was trying to get him to take his morning pill, and he dropped the pill in the glass of water and drank the water. he never did that
Sadly, This sounds like the President of the Country we love.

Does anyone know who made the 70s documentary about a young mans father who slowly deteriorated? I think it was Ross Mc Elwee but I may be wrong
I did not expect my name and my husbands to be printed,. !!! no one else has this.where did you get it from?
Praise inner beauty god daily then our body and people coprate
He left out FTD: Frontotemporal Dementia
thank you
How can you say it’s not genetic when I have three generations before me with this issue? That’s beyond just bad luck, that’s 100% genetic
Its not genetic. My grandma died at 87 from stroke and until last day was a business woman. Her daughter my mother died at 87 from Alzheimers diagnosed at 80. Her older sister still lives no dementia. However my mother had a stroke in her fifties.
Years ago they called it hardening of the arteries. Is that true?
That's heart disease
I have CADASIL, which is genetic, and the statistics now say we are 1/400 or for Asians it is 1/100.
Please update your i formation.
Can kids get dementia cause i have most of these signs
Hi Danny. Thanks for getting in touch. I believe children can get Dementia, although it is very rare. It would be best to speak with a medical professional about the symptoms you have to ensure you receive the best advice. I wish you all the best, BC

For it and forget to tell the doc about the pain... shell tell him other stuff and then come home and be lile omg I forgot to tell her what I made the Apt. For. She stumbles a lot too.

You need to go with her to her doctor appointments. If you can, get her to give you permission to speak with the doctor when needed. Very important. Good luck.
