The progression of dementia changes a lot in our day-to-day lives, but one of the most complicated affected areas is arguably how we communicate. We asked Dr. Michelle James, a licensed clinical psychologist at Banner Alzheimer’s Institute with specialized training in clinical neuropsychology, to help us untangle these changes and learn what we can do to be prepared for them. She explains how we formulate language in our brain and why the progression of dementia directly affects how we talk.
