<p>Thanks for the info Mike. </p>
<p>I read the article and am familiar with the disease. Mike Bera's dad the same thing. It was difficult to diagnosis, but is getting a larger exposure. It took a number of years and finally a doctor from a hospital who was newer to WI, who finally matched his diagnosis. Mike's dad died just over 18 years ago, at age 74. The symptoms came on slowly and gradually. It was hard to know if it was his personality, or something else. doctors estimate that the timeline was 7 to 10 years, that he lived with the disease. Denial by others, or inability to intervene, made things difficult for those around him. Observation of actions, speech, etc were there, but hard to discern from natural personality. </p>
<p>Perhaps, others will see and assist in helping others get the help, or assistance they need before it becomes hurtful to others and their safety. </p>

<div dir="ltr">Dear fellow LCUUC'ers,</div>
<div dir="ltr"> </div>
<div dir="ltr">Please read the article below:</div>
<div dir="ltr"><a href="https://currently.att.yahoo.com/news/forensic-psychiatrist-physical-signs-trumps-094504165.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://currently.att.yahoo.com/news/forensic-psychiatrist-physical-signs-trumps-094504165.html</a></div>

<div dir="ltr">Behavioral variant fronto-temporal dementia is a serious degenerative brain disorder that could erode whatever discipline Donald Trump still has over his worst instincts, putting our country and the world at incredible risk.</div>
<div dir="ltr"> </div>
<div dir="ltr">The frontal and temporal areas of the brain control "executive function," such as judgement, impulse control, and management of emotion. Mr. Trump had shown serious problems with these already due to his narcissistic personality disorder, but the emergence of this condition is like throwing gas on the fire.</div>
<div dir="ltr"> </div>
<div dir="ltr">I sincerely hope the media, such as network news, CNN, and MSNBC take this article and trumpet it to the heavens. The US <em>absolutely cannot </em>allow a person with this psychiatric disease to take office.</div>
<div dir="ltr"> </div>
<div dir="ltr">Anything we can do, individually or collectively, to prevent his election is now even more of a mandate.</div>
<div dir="ltr"> </div>
<div dir="ltr">Thanks,</div>
