Dementia

Dementia is a condition that affects a person's brain and makes it hard for them to think, remember, and do everyday activities. It can be hard to understand if you are not living with it, but here's an example: Imagine if you were always forgetting things like where you put your keys, your phone number, or where you live. It can be like that for someone with dementia.
