[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think I will kill myself before it comes to this.  Not kidding. [/quote]

100% same.  This is totally my plan. [/quote]

I think that too but the problem is dementia is not an aggressive cancer that progress quickly and leaves you with a clear mind, is a long decline and each day you may think you are fine until you get to the point where you are not fine but you are unable to make the decision. also, I have a couple of relative into it now (both over 80s) and they both denied they had any problem even when we realized something was off. they both managed to hide their memory issues for a long time and one even  argued with the doctor who did the neuropsych test , saying that she was perfectly fine and that her husband was making things up, even when the doctor was showing her the result of the test with the deficiencies. I think our brain has a defense mechanism that allow us to deny an horrible reality we don't want to face. [/quote]
