Yeah, I was thinking 64 is too young for that too. When did he start showing symptoms? Too many unanswered questions and he died peacefully? I had to look this up, how do people die from dementia.

How Dementia Causes Death
With the impaired ability to move, a person in the late-stage of dementia is at risk for a number of medical complications like infection of the urinary tract and pneumonia (an infection of the lung). Difficulty swallowing, eating, and drinking leads to weight loss, dehydration, and malnutrition which further increases their vulnerability to infection. In the end, most people with late-stage dementia die of a medical complication related to their underlying dementia. For instance, a person may die from an infection like aspiration pneumonia, which occurs as a result of swallowing difficulties, or a person may die from a blood clot in the lung as a result of being immobile and bedbound.
Oh sorry, I posted part of that article, I just saw it highlighted in red not to do that!
It's all good, Creamy... the only serious issue is when people post entire articles, and even worse, they don't even link back. That gives me extra work to do in editing down their post, finding the source, etc.
