relationship between brain changes and behaviour in people with dementia
Senility is an old word for dementia. Only old people can be senile, but anyone can have dementia from brain damage.
People who meditate regularly have a lower chance of developing dementia.
Dementia is a general term for a decline in cognitive function severe enough to interfere with daily life. It can affect memory, thinking, language, judgment, and behavior, and is often associated with aging. It is not a normal part of aging and is caused by various diseases or conditions affecting the brain.
We do not know what causes dementia, we only know that it becomes more common as people age.
No. The percentage of the population with dementia does increase with age, but not even half of elderly people (those above age 65) will ever meet criteria for dementia.
There are a couple of different ways your grandparents can receive support for their dementia. It really depends on how far along the dementia is. There is also support for people like you. http://www.tree.com/health/dementia-support.aspx
In the UK 750,000 people suffer from dementia.
Yes, you can get diagnosed with dementia at that age, although its not as common as it is in elderly people. I would recommend asking your doctor if you feel that you have any symptoms of dementia.
