Early diagnosis is important if you want to take the "business class to Zurich" option.  Very few people are proactive so they would rather be in dementia-denial.  Doctors do not do any routine cognitive testing because people don't want to know.  They are more concerned about losing their driver's licence than losing their mind.   

 I find this article "trite."  They basically do not care about the quality of life of old women.  So if you have arthritis in a body part that men don't get it in, you will be told to do yoga or "mindfulness" until you are like patient A.B. who got approved for MAID for arthritis.  They also pulled the entire boomer generation off of hormones so they missed the estrogen window of opportunity and then turn around and say "oops."
