    Lewy Body Dementia, also known as LBD, is a topic that hits home for me. My grandfather passed away a year ago and was originally diagnosed with LBD. My family had never heard of such a disease before it personally affected us. As I further researched the medical condition I came to discover that not being aware of this disease was not really an uncommon thing.

In the following paper I will be explaining what this disease is, as well as the symptoms, treatment, and impacts that come along with LBD.…
