There are differences in normal aging and signs of early dementia. What are they? It is one thing to forget a friend’s name for a few minutes and remember it or to misplace keys and later remember where you left them.  Those are signs of normal aging.  When one forgets what the purpose of a key is, that is an early sign of dementia onset.  There are numerous levels of cognitive impairment.  Alzheimer’s Disease is but one of dozens of kinds of dementia.  It is important to be aware of signs of early dementia in yourself and your aging loved ones.
