Is Dementia Hereditary ?

No - it can be hereditary but not everyone is destined for dementia.

Over 80 years of age, one in three will be diagnosed with dementia.

My mum had dementia and I’m not interested in getting a test to see if I have the gene for dementia. Why worry about it for the next 20 years, I refuse to, as worrying ruins today.

Mum did everything right and she still got it.

Just like athletes who are fit and healthy and get cancer.

Life is a box of chocolates so make the most of every day
