00:00I'm just going to leave you with one more thing, you know, because now I'm annoyed.
00:06When doctors or media and they talk about dementia, they'll say Alzheimer's and other
00:11dementias. So FTD is the other dementia. And let me tell you something about that disease.
00:17It is real. It is out there. And it will bring you to your knees. So I think that is
00:24an absolute
00:25disservice and absolutely disrespectful for these other dementias to be put in that category. I think
00:31it's really important for us to know what these diseases are, like vascular, like Lewy body,
00:37like FTD. And, you know, call it what it is, because that is where the confusion lies. When
00:44people think of dementia, they automatically think of Alzheimer's. So I do not want to see this
00:50disease and our other dementias being swept under the rug anymore. So again, there's another why.
00:57Let's continue to raise our voices.
