It describes a wide range of symptoms associated with a decline in memory or other thinking skills. Dementia can be caused by various factors, including Alzheimer's disease, which is the most common cause.

Bruce Willis' family announced his dementia diagnosis, and since then, he has been relatively private about his condition. However, his recent public appearance has brought attention to the importance of brain health and the need for support and prayer for those affected by dementia.
