     Dementia and what I learned from it.


de·men·tia
dəˈmen(t)SH(ē)ə/
noun
MEDICINE
  1. a chronic or persistent disorder of the mental processes caused by brain disease or injury and marked by memory disorders, personality changes, and impaired reasoning.
    synonyms:

    mental illness, madnessinsanity, derangement, lunacy
    "her failing memory is not necessarily a symptom of dementia"
    So I watched a 


    video about this really smart guy wanted to 

    volunteer at a elderly shelter where people 

     had dementia. And it was when the elderly 

    people that had dementia the really smart guy 

    put on their favorite music that they loved 

    back when they were younger/kids. And then the 

    guy asked multiple questions about back when 

    they were kids and they remembered lot of 

    things.
