FTD is a devastating disease that impacts thousands of families—but too few people know about it. 🧠 It’s the most common dementia for people under 60. ⏳ The average time to diagnosis is 3.6 years. 💰 The annual cost of FTD care is double that of Alzheimer’s. FTD has no cure, no FDA-approved treatment, and takes an immense toll on families. Raising awareness is the first step toward change. 👉 Click the link in our bio to learn more about FTD. 09 Feb 2025 Frontotemporal degeneration (FTD) is the most common dementia for people under 60, yet it’s frequently misdiagnosed. It can affect personality, behavior, language, and movement—impacting families, work, and finances in ways that set it apart from Alzheimer’s. Understanding the signs is the first step toward a correct diagnosis. Swipe through to learn about the five main types of FTD. 🔗 Click the link in our bio to learn more about FTD. #BrainAwarenessWeek2025 10 Mar 2025 Bruce Willis has been diagnosed with FTD, the actor’s family said in a statement released today. In March 2022, Willis announced his retirement from acting due to a diagnosis of aphasia. However, the family has shared, his symptoms have progressed and are no longer limited to challenges with communication, leading to his FTD diagnosis. “Bruce always believed in using his voice in the world to help others, and to raise awareness about important issues both publicly and privately,” the family said. “We know in our hearts that – if he could today – he would want to respond by bringing global attention and a connectedness with those who are also dealing with this debilitating disease and how it impacts so many individuals and their families.” Click the link in our bio to read more. 16 Feb 2023 🧠 FTD MYTH OR FACT?
