>We all have moments when we start to worry about our memories. You lose your keys. You forget the name of someone you know well. That alone is scary. And then there’s dementia: You forget recent conversations; whole hours or afternoons become blank. You struggle with simple tasks you’ve done a million times: tying your shoes, making coffee. The person who used to plan trips while cooking dinner with friends and being the DJ for the party now lies awake at night in fear and spends days staring, because they don’t know where they are or what to do next. Anger, depression, and confusion grow. You can remember enough to know—this isn’t your life.
