It can be difficult to determine if a loved one is experiencing early onset of dementia. Some early signs include memory loss such as not remembering recent events or faces of loved ones which is a very prominent symptom, difficulty performing routine tasks such as brushing your teeth, tying shoes or checking the mailbox, personality or behaviour changes such as sudden and increased anger in normally calm persons. If you know a loved one who is experiencing any of these signs, it’s important for them to see a doctor to determine the next steps for you and your family.
