Several people have mentioned that their loved one has dementia at an age that seems unusually low.
Normally, anyone who develops dementia before the age of 65 is termed a "young onset" person.
Some people, like my Jan, is now aged over 65, but her dementia started in earnest when she was 50, so she is still a young onset person.
I've put a poll on here - if you feel like it, can you select the option that applies to your loved one?
