[Suzie G]

This is the first time I've posted. Noyiced an earlier thread mentioned stages of dementia - 6c/6d...what does this mean? Where's the best place to find out? Thanks.

I don't know about the c or d but you can google the 7 stages of dementia, just please, please don't take them as gospel - they progress differently for everyone.

hello @Suzie G
welcome to posting on TP - I'm glad you've found it helpful to be reading the threads
this may be of interest too

any descriptors are just a guide, though, as each person presents differently with a mix of symptoms from some of the stages
you may find some of the booklets on the main AS site worth looking at - there's a link at top right of this page and:
