Listen Later

It may come as a shock, but dementia isn’t only an older adult’s condition. Teepa and Greg talk about the rare but very real topic of childhood dementia—affecting about 1 in 2,900 kids. They explain the types of childhood dementia, why it’s often missed or misdiagnosed, and how families can access desperately needed support. Most importantly, they share why raising awareness is essential to getting children the right help.
