The majority of us in this video have dementia including Alzheimer’s and Lewy Body Dementia.We all attend Reflections in Cornwall for day care and activities including Cognitive Stimulation Therapy. We have made this short film to show that we are just normal people and we all thoroughly enjoyed the making of this film. If this film makes you smile please would you donate a little of your money to the Lewy Body Society which is the chosen charity of Dementia Awareness Day, Sept 15th 2012.
Very sweet! I especially like the cute lady who is reading Fifty Shades of Grey! LOL Creative and fun.

Thanks for writing

The underlying brain changes of Lewy body dementias involve the clumping of a protein in the brain called alpha-synuclein. These clumps are called “Lewy bodies.” The regional distribution of these clumps in the brain influences the types of symptoms (e.g., cognitive, motor, psychiatric). Lewy body dementias are also associated with reductions in important brain chemicals called neurotransmitters, including dopamine and acetylcholine.
