Letβs recap our five key messages:
1. Dementia is not a natural part of ageing.
2. Dementia is caused by diseases of the brain.
3. Dementia is not just about memory loss.
4. It is possible to live well with dementia.
5. There is more to a person than the dementia.

Is anyone else finding the reporting around Bruce Willis frustrating?
I keep seeing it reported that he was diagnosed with "aphasia" last year and that this has developed into frontotemporal dementia.
This is not how Aphasia works. π§΅

Sad to hear that actor Bruce Willis has been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia.
'FTD' is a less common dementia which causes problems with behaviour and language.
