Gemma Illingworth was just 28 when she was diagnosed with PCA (posterior cortical atrophy). This is a reminder that dementia is not just a senior disease, and we should all be evaluated as early as possible if cognitive complaints occur. https://t.co/Cn0uOb3lfO

Posterior cortical atrophy (PCA) is a rare form of #dementia that mostly affects the parts of the brain that process visual and spatial information.

PCA can affect people of any age but most commonly develops between the ages of 50 and 65.

@DementiaUK has created a leaflet which outlines the symptoms, diagnosis process, treatments and therapies. Download a copy here: https://t.co/uRPsKSLLov
