Based on the above symptoms, he scheduled a health examination for his father to assure his father’s health conditions before traveling with his father abroad.
Looking at his father’s brain images, the doctor explained to him slowly and professionally that a degeneration sign over the frontal and temporal lobes had been found, indicating potential early dementia. The doctor suggested that they seek a special diagnosis and treatment, the health manager could help with the referral. By looking at his father chatting with the staff happily, he was surprised by the findings but with a peaceful mind. He was pleased that he could be aware of his father’s condition in the early stage, so he still has time to enjoy life together with his father. He knew that one day his father may forget about him, but at least he could still remember the happy hours they enjoyed together.
