Back in episode 13 of Creating Dementia Solutions, Michigan State University researcher Dr. Graham Atkin helped us learn that dementia may not be what might be going on with a loved one.

In this episode, Miles for Memories lead volunteer Sherii Sherban elaborates, sharing an easy way to consider other potential ailments or conditions a loved one might be experiencing – before zeroing in on dementia.

And, she does it using one simple word: DEMENTIAS.
