Dementia is a condition that slowly affects the brain over time. It happens when brain cells (neurons) stop working properly lose their connections and finally die. While it is normal to lose some brain cells as we grow older dementia causes much bigger damage which affects memory thinking and daily life.
Dementia is not just one disease it is a group of symptoms that affect how a person thinks remembers and behaves. A person with dementia may forget things have trouble speaking or understanding feel confused or behave differently. It can also change their emotions and personality. But one important thing to understand is that dementia is not a normal part of aging. Many elderly people live long lives without getting dementia.
