When my Mom really started to "lose it" her long term primary care doc attributed it to her history of heart issues. Vascular Dementia. Blood supply issues to the brain kill off cells. Some 8 or so years later and she's a mess. Has lost most of her memory and the delusions are getting pretty creative. She is really starting to lose her language as well.

I have a buddy who is 65. One of my best friends. He has been telling the same stories over and over since I've known him. He has a great heart, but is one of those guys who has to be the one talking in a group of people. We just laugh at him and give him crap about it.
