[quote=Anonymous]A dementia diagnosis doesn’t always mean the person will be mean and angry. My relative with dementia caused by heart bypass surgery was completely the opposite: he was placid and sweet, always thanking anyone who did anything at all for him. He couldn’t remember very much, but he was such a joy to be with in his final year. He radiated love to those around him during that time. It was sad, obviously, that he had lost so much of his past and his memories of his friends and family, but it was a consolation to his family that he seemed to be happy. I don’t know why it affects people differently, but it definitely does. [/quote]
