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.

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.
