My sanity. Seriously, my mother suffered from dementia in the last five or six years of her life, and it was horrible for everyone.

@4meAndyou I am sure you can't lose your sanity. *hugs*

@ABCDEF7 Ah, my friend, alzheimers and dementia are diseases of old age. Any one of us might lose our mind toward the end of life. My brother teased me about it once when I told him I was afraid of going in the same way as my mother. He said, "Don't worry, if you get dementia you won't even know it." But that's not true. I remember the first two years of my mothers disease, and she knew something bad was happening to her.

But thank you for your kind words. {{hugs}}

@4meAndyou Not every person get these diseases. I think so because while interacting with you, I think you have very balanced mind. This thought is really scary. If you really feel that you can get these diseases, please adopt a habit of doing yoga and meditation on frequent basis.
