Will I get dementia?

My oldest sister died October 25 from dementia. Now it is me and my middle sister left. Wondering what the chances are of us getting dementia?

  1. Hi Bonnie, I'm so sorry for the loss of your sister. I'm sending light and love. There are some risk factors - https://alzheimersdisease.net/risk-factors - that you can try to mitigate. And there are new tests that can help diagnose: https://alzheimersdisease.net/research-studies/diagnosis-blood-test. Have a day filled with peace in your heart. -Warmly, Donna (team member)
