Dementia is the loss of cognitive functioning, thinking, remembering, and reasoning to such an extent that it interferes with a person’s daily life activities. This is due to a terminal illness. Dementia is progressive, meaning the symptoms could get worse, and current treatments are suitable for just a few types of dementia. Dementia is incurable, but through proper care and treatment, further loss of memory could be prevented. Dementia can affect anyone, whatever their gender, ethnic group, class, educational or professional background, and there is no cure, although research is ongoing.
It is a misconception that dementia is all about memory loss. Memory loss in general is a key feature, but there are other symptoms involved as well. Some of the symptoms are
- Struggle to recall familiar faces
- Become paranoid and delusional, or hallucinate
- Show poor judgment and walk out carelessly on busy roads or pick up a hot saucepan.
- Experience mobility problems and increased risk of falling or getting into accidents
Some major types of Dementia are
- Alzheimer’s disease
- Vascular Dementia
- Dementia with Lewy Bodies
- Frontotemporal Dementia
- Mixed Dementia
