Its weird to think about once you consider alzheimers as organ failure. The fact that this organ specifically IS YOU makes the whole thought terrifying.
It is terrifying. I have worked with people with dementia for 30 years and the saddest what I used to say was that with dementia you loose yourself, your home😢. It can be very cruel.
It is terrifying, for the patient, as well as the family and other caregivers. The emotional aspect of watching someone you love, fall apart and be someone else at times is heart wrenching. There is also paranoia and distrust of others, unfounded suspicion, etc. our family experienced this with several of our dearest loved ones. Even with us nurses in family, still it was devastatingly hard. Our last was a sister, who eventually passed from complications, with Hospice care. We felt so relieved for her, that she was finally at peace in Heaven! It’s taken some time to recover and get balanced again. I’m in early 70s and pray I don’t, also have it. We never know what or when we may experience in this life. Keep your family close and love deeply. 🙏🧡🦋
Please remember that dementia is NOT a normal part of aging. It's not "just" a decline in memory or attention. It is a symptom of an underlying neurological problem, most often a neurological disease such as Alzheimer's or Lewy Body, but can also be caused by damage from physical trauma such a repeated concussions.
@@escapethematrix40 Not sure exactly what you're asking. Though, in relation to dementia, there's a lot of evidence in the scientific literature that having diabetes, especially from an early age, can greatly increase the risk of developing diseases that cause dementia like Alzheimer's or Vascular Dementia.
@@llwpeaches Thank you, you answered my question.. was asking if there is any connection with diabetes and dementia? my mom passed away last year from dementia..😥she had type 2 diabetes.
@@escapethematrix40 I'm glad I could answer your question. Unfortunately, the factors that put a person at risk of developing dementia are numerous and, in many cases, genetics also plays a role. It's the extreme complexity of the underlying disease processes that has led to so few effective treatments (and it's not for lack of trying). It doesn't help that by the time a person begins showing symptoms, the damage to the brain is already quite extensive and irreversible. One of the main focuses of current research is looking for ways in which to detect it early enough to better control the onset of symptoms by limiting or slowing the progression of damage. I'm so sorry to hear about your mother. I'm sure that was really hard you and others in your family. I'm all too familiar with its devastating and often unpredictable effects. I've worked with a lot of dementia patients as a nurse, but I've also been caring for my mother the past few years who has advanced Parkinson's Disease Dementia (a subtype of Lewy Body Dementia). I also volunteer as a dementia awareness advocate. Ironically, the Alzheimer's awareness campaign these past few decades was so successful that most people, including many healthcare providers, now equate dementia only with Alzheimer's and have little to no awareness of the other types of pathologies that cause dementia and the variability in its presentation. This often leads to missed and delayed diagnosis which can be extremely detrimental to both the patient and their families/caregivers. Hopefully, further advocacy campaigns can change that. It certainly helps when people are curious and are willing to ask questions, whether they're personally affected or not. So, thank you for asking about it and, again, I'm very sorry for your loss.
I am a dementia educator. The way I explain dementia is that when we learn someone has dementia, we only know two things about them. Those two things are that they have 1) memory loss that is 2) severe enough to impact their daily life.
I had two relatives die from dementia. It’s a terrible disease. You basically have to watch your loved one rot away in front of you. Towards the end it’s like they’re already gone even though they’re still alive. Terrible and terrifying disease.
My grandmother with dementia acts and talks like a child. She also often wanders around like one. She barely eats and weighs less than 100 lbs Rotting away is a very accurate term, because that's what she's doing
It's the only thing that unmans my grandfather. He's said many times that if he ever experiences cognitive decline, he still has his S&W snubby for a reason. It's horrific to think about, but I can't fault him. He prizes his ability to think. His good brain defines him. He doesn't want to die twice, like his father did.
@@danielstefanov3003 sorry to hear that, seeing any loved one suffer with that is heartbreaking. I lost my maternal grandfather and mother to it. After fighting for years to get tested, my neurologist finally let me, it came back negative. I changed doctors soon after because I wanted someone new, since i suffer from severe headaches.
The brain doesn't have pain receptors. When you have a migraine, it's something else that's hurting, usually muscles or blood vessels for various reasons.

Ok, what causes someone to get Alzheimer's?? I jus found out the past few months tht, my dad has Alzheimer's. He jus turned 83 today. I'm wondering if he knows tht he has Alzheimer's, bcuz he did have dementia for about 6-8yrs. tht I know of. I'm really trying to deal with this on my own until I go see him in July. I call my dad every week to see how he's doing. I'm really worried about my dad.😭😭😭💔💔💔
I don’t mean to be rude. But please don’t let him get to a point where he has to live in hospice care. Talk to him and see what he thinks he wants to do.
I have read that caffeine is bad for our brain because it affects circulation, causes decrease in circulation which negatively affects the brain (I don’t know how or to what extent over time or all the specifics of how much). Other things that cause decrease in circulation: smoking, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol. There’s more stuff but in general anything that decreases circulation to our brain over time puts us at risk for developing dementia (among other factors like diet, exercise, socialization/education).
Are these two age related or can they come at any time? Is there a test if we suspect its possible? At age 42, ive been having a lot of memory loss, lost of thoughts, repeating myself frequently.
Id like to know the percentage of dementia patients that have gallstones, cholesterol stones. The brain is made of cholesterol right...and makes it. Is it made only in the brain? But will it not if elsewhere in the body there is excess it can't manage? . Ive heard of coconut oil helping Alzheimer's patients. Possibly stopping the thinning. Do bad fats and oxidative stress add to the issue? Is it a lack of healthy fats because bad fats have taken their place, the ability to metabolize fats, or bad fats causing bad problems....maybe all three.
Can the brain 🧠 meningitis film be removed will it grow back? If not can someone fet a transplant or is it going to have the brain bleeding out uf ruptured? Do a episode of amphetamine and alcohol brain. Show us normal brain vs a abused brain
Toxins, heavy metals, parasites Lyme and co-infections have been connected pathologically to dementia. They are some of the causes and very treatable. Some people get better.
I have a question about antaxia and I don't know if I'm pronouncing or spelling that right? But I know it's with the sarabella. Can you explain that would cause tomantia? I know that it's a deteriorating disease.

Nope, that's a real brain. On RUclips you can almost show anything as long as the content is educational.

Parasitic damage would fall into more of an acquired brain injury category, whereas dementias are a degenerative disease.
