Yeah, I have a 2 grandmas that didn't drink and both died in their 90s. One with dementia the other without. One grandpa died in his late 80s and I think he drank. The other died in his 90s. Neither had dementia.
What lesson can I draw from any of this? Dementia really sucks for the families. It's not so bad for the person who's brain is turning to mush.
- kcplate 1y ago> It's not so bad for the person who's brain is turning to mush Well Alzheimer’s was torture for my father every single day before he passed. My grandmother had it too and all throughout the beginning he knew what was coming and how difficult it was going to be for both him and all of us. Even through to the end during the fleeting moments of almost clarity, he agonized over “not being able to think like I used to” If you could ask someone who has it, I seriously doubt their answer would be “it’s not so bad”.
