Hi everyone I would like to talk about Dementia today. Dementia is one of those diseases that sneak up on the person and family. Many people have dementia and are able to cover the symptoms. For example when going out to eat , you make ask the person what are you going to order, because they can not read the menu they will respond what are you having and then say that sounds good I will have that too. Or they may place their money in order in their wallet so they know the ones are first , fives etc . If you have a loved one that may exhibit some of the symptoms you may want to see a geriataric Psychiatrist. UCSD has some of the best and they can help you and your family cope . Because one day you think your loved one is normal the next day they are not.
