Dementia: Dementia is the progressive decline of mental faculties like memory, learning, orientation, language, comprehension, and judgment. The decline is very gradual, debilitating and depressing. In the early stages, the afflicted person undergoes memory loss and is unable to recall familiar names and places or everyday objects. Sometimes the person also undergoes personality changes. As the condition progresses, the person gets increasingly dependant on others for even simple tasks like eating, bathing and brushing their teeth. Sufferers sometimes cannot recognize their spouses, children or long-time friends. And the family has to cope with not just the trauma of losing a loved member, but also the demands of 24-hour care and vigilance, which can be draining, both emotionally and financially. In the advanced stages of Dementia, the person is bed-ridden and suffers for anywhere between a month and a year. Compared to other countries, India lags woefully behind in Dementia Care.
