Week 2: Dementia and Diagnosis

  • Would it help the person with dementia to be given a doll/teddy bear for comfort?
    Is that something that choose by default?

  • Can any form of dementia be seen on a scan?
    How far into the illness does one have to be for it to show up on a scan?

  • I am wondering what signs one needs to worry about.
    As with aging, some forgetfulness is normal, but which symptoms warrant a visit to the DR?
