Dementia Prevention Day

This is today's Sankei Shimbun.
6/14is Dementia Prevention Day.

How can we prevent this activity for many people when we start this activity? I am asked.
As this newspaper says, there is not one answer, so it will be long.

When I talked to a psychology teacher
"If you are diagnosed with dementia, your symptoms will get worse."
He said.

A man with juvenile dementia
"When I was diagnosed with dementia, I thought I was going to die."
He said.

In fact, the diagnosis of dementia does not have tumor markers like blood tests or cancer.
However, after diagnosis, many people get worse and worse.
Is it because of the drug?
How to get involved?
Is it because society does not understand dementia?
Is it because of your negative emotions?
？？？

We thought about various things and wanted to do something about it, so we started to nio.

First of all, it is important to listen to the person's voice and know what symptoms dementia is.
And then I noticed something.

Maybe we have put that person in the frame of "dementia"、、、。
And he himself may have imagined the frame of "because he has dementia"、、、。

"Don't treat it as a special thing with dementia."
Some people told me.

We don't know what the right answer is.

Why don't you all think about it together?
Dementia as my own.
