Dementia

Dementia, Latin demens, is progressive decline in cognitive function due to disease in the brain beyond what might be expected from normal aging. Particularly affected areas may be memory, attention, language and problem solving, although particularly in the later stages of the condition, affected persons may be disoriented in time, place and person.
