What is your main health concern as you get older?I am concerned about getting Dementia in my later years. My mum has Alzheimers and she looked after herself so well in life so she does not fit any of the 'risk categories' the Health professionals often mention when talking about this disease. My mum didnt smoke, rarely drank, was very fit, very positive spirit, curious about everything in life, always wanting to learn, did all the crosswords ! brain exercises but she still managed to get it. There is still so much to learn about Dementia so I just wish governments around the world could put more funds towards finding out why it occurs. The incidents of Dementia is rising at a very fast rate and the affects are devasting for everyone concerned.
