Dementia is a general term for a decline in mental ability severe enough to interfere with daily life. Memory loss is an example. Alzheimer's is the most common type of dementia. It may be on a sliding scale of total confusion to just occasional memory lapses. All dementia is not Alzheimer's disease and many people show moderate memory loss without ever being diagnosed with Alzheimer's. This book is not an attempt to define the disease or to suggest a cure or treatment. The goal of this book is to provide a simplistic explanation of general dementia to a primary-age child. Kids are amazingly resilient if they are provided with explanations for confusing things in their lives. My hope is this book will provide children a modicum of illumination on a confusing issue. 650 0 $a Dementia $v Juvenile fiction. 700 1 $a Aguilar, Ivan Earl, $e illustrator. 941 $a 1 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20211202010719.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8CDA3314533D11EC9185B7CB4CECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
