Dr. Jess F. Deegan II was watching a YouTube on "Dementia Careblazers" by Dr. Natalie. She made a great statement, noting that Dementia is not a disease of old age, but one of middle age that we see the effects of in old age. Changes in the brain have been occurring for years!

Jan 15, 20226 the Delta Group had a discussion about how people with Dementia see the world. I noted that Dr. Natalie just discussed how reality and delusion are not different for the person with Dementia, just for us. See

Also, we discussed contacts for Region 10, which are provided here. These people are considered "Options Counselors" who can help you find help, if the help is still available. Scroll to the bottom of the page for the options counselor by county.
