What causes lucid days in a dementia patient? |
i am doing a class project on dementia and i have heard of people having days where they seem perfectly lucid and aware of things for a bit of time, but then they return to the state they were in. what is the cause of this? The brain is a marvelous thing...and no one really knows why it happens. There have been discussions about blood supply improving temporarily and increased electrical activity but its just supposition. |
