Dementia is a specific disease process that causes certain symptoms, such as memory loss, difficulties with communication and problems performing familiar tasks. People suffering from Alzheimer's disease and related dementias experience a gradual decline in their memory, thinking and reasoning skills. They may have problems completing familiar tasks at home or work - such as paying bills or following recipes - without assistance or reminders. As the disease progresses they may also have difficulty performing even simple tasks, like using the telephone, preparing a meal or driving.
