I'm just not sure why dementia causes death? Is it usually one of their comorbidities, or does their brain stop working to the extent it no longer tells the heart to beat or lungs to breathe etc?
Dad has had a stroke and TIAs and is medicated to prevent further ones. But other than his worsening mixed dementia, he's as fit as a fiddle at 72. He's always been healthy. I gues I'm trying to second guess how long we have left with him.
