Why do people with dementia forget things like people/events, but not things like the alphabet or relatively simple grammar? Or do they, and it’s just not really shown in western media?

There are many types of dementia. Alzheimer’s is but one. People are affected differently. My mom had dementia. She was “pleasantly demented”. That’s the term. She didn’t know where she was, but was always happy. Alzheimer’s patients are often angry. I think she knew who I was. I moved across country, and took care of her for the last 6 years of her life.
