my grandma has this:
de·men·tia (dĭ-měn'shə)
n.
Deterioration of intellectual faculties, such as memory, concentration, and judgment, resulting from an organic disease or a disorder of the brain. It is sometimes accompanied by emotional disturbance and personality changes.
it's kind of comparable to a alzheimer's, only dementia affects more of the short term memory. so she knows who we are (thank god) but after we leave she might not remember that we were there.
i'm going to utah this weekend to visit her with my parents. she's not doing so well. and i'm very nervous to see her in the state that i imagine she's in.
