#1 My Dad faded away.
No thanks.
Just put me down.

#2 Not that particular type, but dementia took my dad too. Smart man, Phi Beta Kappa and AOA, he just stopped eating when some part of him decided it was bullshit.

#3 Don't have many options, but I certainly wouldn't want to be a burden to anyone.

#4 I think it's just method acting for an upcoming Biden role.

#8 He has been losing cognition for the last decade. Not a vax issue.

#9 Remember when the left clutched their pearls and screeched about "when did Reagan's dementia set in?"

#10 Yeah he quit a project some six months ago and this was the rumor.

Seemed a bit off in Cosmic Sin, and I can't think of the last time he took a true lead in a movie. This would explain why.

Great career, time for a rest.

#12 Willis is a rare breed for Hollywood-a conservative.

#14 my favorite was when he did "the taming of the shrew" on Moonlighting...

#15 It's a tough road. Dementia runs in the Mundi family on the female side. Old tales of the "crazy aunt upstairs" were not fairytales. Grandma Mundi, Mother Mundi succumbed. Thankfully we still had family in state to help out. Daughter and graddaughter Mundi could be next in line unless something comes along. Thoughts n prayers to all those who are dealing with this... a very hard road indeed.

#16 A massive stroke killed my maternal grandmother. A series of strokes robbed my mother of her reason ...it is an ugly way to go.

#17 I had a doctor who developed frontal lobe dimentia. He went down fast at an early age. He died in his early 50s.
