00:00 When doctors or media, and they talk about dementia,
00:03 they'll say Alzheimer's and other dementias.
00:05 So FTD is the other dementia.
00:08 And let me tell you something about that disease.
00:11 It is real, it is out there,
00:13 and it will bring you to your knees.
00:16 So I think that is an absolute disservice
00:19 and absolutely disrespectful for these other dementias
00:23 to be put in that category.
00:25 I think it's really important for us
00:26 to know what these diseases are like vascular,
00:30 like Lewy body, like FTD,
00:33 and call it what it is
00:35 because that is where the confusion lies.
00:38 When people think of dementia,
00:39 they automatically think of Alzheimer's.
00:41 So I do not wanna see this disease
00:44 and our other dementias being swept under the rug anymore.
00:48 So again, there's another why.
00:50 Let's continue to raise our voices.
