What is Dementia?
Dementia causes the loss of one's cognitive functioning and can affects their brain and memory. The human brain is made up of billions of neurones that communicate with each other through chemical signals. When someone has Dementia, these neurones are damaged which means that these messages cannot be sent efficiently, and in turn, effects all function of the brain. The effects often start small but progress into being severe enough to affect all aspects of their daily life.
