Living with Dementia

[RPGeeable]

my grandpa was diagnosed with senile dementia last year

[RichyBMelodies]

I can't wait to get dementia. Today I was told by an old guy that I looked Scandinavian and I had a Scandinavian accent, even though I was born in England and have lived here all my life and I clearly don't sound Scandinavian.

Dementia is just an excuse to say random shit to strangers and I can't wait to get it.

[nordeast93]

@RichyBMelodies you sound fucking stupid buddy

[RichyBMelodies]

@nordeast93 Nah mate, Imagine being high all the time, that's the life of dementia x

[nordeast93]

@RichyBMelodies yaaa who told you that..? late stages of dementia takes away all your personality and thoughts. now if you call that a "high" pretty sure that would get a little old after 5+ years

[RichyBMelodies]

@nordeast93 you're demented.

MY grandma has demensia....and I live with her...she hates me...sometimes she gets mad when she looks at me...its pretty hard living like that

[CaitlinSays1]

my gran was put into perniment care because of average dementia. :,,(

[abcman]

Am I right to be pissed off at God due to my poor grandmother having dimentia. She praid everyday of her life and ends up with this shit. My only fear is no life after death. Kills me to think someone like her is going to deteriorate away, but before she does, a few years of suffering. She can't say she's thirst, hungry, nothing. The people there that are supposed to be taking care of them dont give a single fuck eather.

[tstruss912]

My grandpa thinks he's witnessing the underwater circus when he looks at a tree. Dementia must be cool sometimes! Most of the time is sucks, though.

[tommytigers]

"Looking For Lionel-How I Lost and Found my Mother through Dementia"

[Thetrollmaster2000]

[oDEATHSTAR1031o]

Is having an advertisement on this particular video really necessary??

[Jamesscalise]

@oDEATHSTAR1031o They do choose what videos they want the ad for specifically, it's the entire channel.

[JaySmitty33]

[marth1800]

@urtube2k9 who jokes about that type of stuff. its like joking about being a terrorist. you just don't do that

[EMOTIONALLOGICABLE]

It's amazing that a daughter can get so close to her mother while she's in this condition and tend to many of her needs

[conchmo68]

i love my grandma jenelle shes ths sweetest person in the whole world and god bless her, BUT SHES OLD AS FUCK!

[DonaldRumsfailed]

The ice floe reference; the Eskimos would take grandma or grandpa out and set them on an ice floe at the 'right time'. Sounds harsh, but the person being put on the floe probably put their parents on a floe. There must be some acceptance based on that, and it's certainly no more harsh than what the medical profession did to my grandmother. I think I'd rather have be put on the ice floe.

Mind Aid for dementia symptoms. Provides brain with additional source of energy.

[magnusrulz]

i am 14 years old, i have live in england for 12 years but last year my family and i decided to move to denmark to care for our grandma and live with her, she is forgetting more and more. it is hard to live with her but its good to know that we are helping.

[4chango]

@magnusrulz : Talk to your parents about a naturopathic approach. I placed one on my channel. I will leave it post for another week, then I will remove it.

[tommoelbommo]

OMFG you think they would show some discretion with the god damn adverts. YouTube, you are - whether you like it or not - a public service broadcaster. Where people are dealing with life changing issues and are vulnerable... DO NOT IMPOSE ADVERTS

[babyproductions6]

:'( my grandma is dieing of dimentia :'(

[password543]

@babyproductions6 owned

[zwap12]

@babyproductions6 Haha

[DonaldRumsfailed]

@babyproductions6 sorry, man. My mom is going crazy from it, too. hang in there.

[MsJodijohnson]

Read my vlog about dealing with a grandparent with dementia. Its jodijohnson.blog.com. The name of it is I'd Eat Men (dementia)

[MrKorea]

I recently worked in a dementia ward as part of my prac, it was a horribly depressing place. To those caring for dementia patients you are amazing people.

[jevesmybags]

my grandma has it bad it is so sad

[4chango]

@jevesmybags: I placed a naturopathic approach for this on my channel. I will leave it post for another week, then I  will remove it.

[UnkKrunk]

1 in 10 use hospice because they are so rude and want to take over your home and life.Trust me I have first hand experience as I'm the sole care-giver to my late stage mother.

[breto314]

This news story is ridiculous. One doesn't die from dementia, so to speak, it is a final stage in life. People forget that death is inevitability and that no matter how much medicine or treatment one can receive one will eventually expire. Although dementia is taxing on the family, it is a, somewhat, natural way to die. You go out the same way you come in. talking gibberish and shitting your pants in a stroller. It is tough but natural. Considering how long people are living now. But then again.

[kathleenxrose]

@breto314

that's fairly true, but dementia is a cause of death since it is a syndrome consisting of multiple diseases- Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Lewy Body, etc. Dementia causes death because it causes brain cells to be killed off, so while it is affecting the memory by causing memory cells to die, it also causes other places in the brain to be affected and cell's to die off, such as parts that control major organs.

[TeDtheUnDeAd]

@breto314 actually im a CNA at a care center for dementia patients and one of my patients has FTD or Frontaltemporal dementia he is 50 years old

[pallas1957]

Thank You For This Story. My Father Has Dementia.

[omichron420]

@pallas1957 Why Do You Capitalize Every Word In Your Comment?

[NuclearFallout321]

@omichron420 Why is it necessary to make a comment like that on this video?

[omichron420]

@NuclearFallout321 Honk honk.

[benwebb93]

@pallas1957 If you're still involved in his life then I have the utmost respect for you :-)

[slygirls09]
