Agitation? or Alzhiemers? I'm sorry but I've come to the conclusion that Senility and Alzhiemers are the one same. ask anyone who's old enough to remember a Grandma and then a parent years down the road,to have Alzhiemers.
Just my thought tho
I've thought the same thing too, Sweets. What we now refer to as Alzheimer's disease was once called 'senility.' Similarly years ago people used to die of 'consumption.' It was a general term that encompassed cancer, tuberculosis, organ failure--just about anything.
