The youngest I’ve ever taken care of was 60. When guests would come to visit their loved ones at the home they would mistake her for staff. It led to some confusion to say the least. Sad to see such active, vibrant people be mentally crippled by this disease.

I knew a couple of elderly people who did not have it, but one of their children did. One woman was actually caring for her daughter with the disease. Really sad.

My aunt was diagnosed at 54 with two teenagers - it’s brutal. Thank you for what you do
