I have Dementia?

Apparently I have dementia and it came as quite a shock to me when I first heard the news as I had no idea.

Surely there is some mistake in the medically qualified diagnosis?

I'm not that old, well not past 50 anyway.

Wait.

I may have to contact my GP to make an appointment with a medically qualified physician for a second opinion.

I am very upset.

I found out about 'my' medical condition from a member of the public, who had phoned up the town hall to make enquires about a voluntary group (who have been receiving public money for years to allegedly provide a service) and was (much to his surprise) informed by two council employees that I have this medical condition.

I'm upset as anyone would be, to learn that I apparently have (because not 1 but 2 council employees said so so it must be true), such a serious illness.

Hang on.

Why are council staff giving out this information to members of the public - when even I didn't know I had the condition?

Does this mean I'm demented?

Surely now I have this condition I will need extra care and understanding from me lords and lordesses up at da big house?

Apparently I have also made threats of physical violence to un-named council members and used violence against a committee member of a public funded voluntary group.

If this was actually true it could I suppose be explained away by me having a serious cognitive/mental illness such as the one I have recently been made aware of that I apparently have. I'm sure the police would have arrested and charged me by now or i'd be in a care home due to my newly diagnosed mental condition?

Just how low can they go?

Whats odd about dementia in Camden residents is that it seems in many cases to only appear (along with the apparent violent tendencies) when the conduct of council officers or their little helpers comes under the spotlight. Weird or what?
