Among the general public there is a deep fear of developing dementia, which has led to an increasing number of people "at risk" seeking ways (such as advance directives) to avoid undergoing progressive mental decline. The views of people with dementia are vital in obtaining a real answer to the question of how the disease affects people's lives and whether it actually involves the suffering that so many fear.
