Over the years I've had some pretty fascinating, interesting and humorous conversations with dementia patients. Behind all that agitation and confusion that can make hospitalization for demented people so complicated and full of risk is the innocence of dementia itself. Dementia is a child like state of innocence that separates the patient's reality from ours. It is that skewed reality that drives both the pain and humor of dementia.

Take for example the demented old lady with multiple medical problems. She's brushing her teeth with the help of staff. She's laughing and giggling and then blurts out from nowhere, "I don't know what I'm doing, but if I spit on you it's going to kill you!"   The innocence of it all. I asked my facebook readers to share their funny stories and experiences they have had with their demented patients and they didn't disappoint. Dementia can be sad and sweet at the same time. By definition, dementia robs one of their ability to understand and comprehend the world around them. They live in their own reality. Some demented people become angry. Some become paranoid. Some become sweet and funny.    Below is a collection of quotes, stories and sayings my readers have experienced from patients with dementia. Feel free to add your own. In addition, make sure to "Like" my facebook page for The Happy Hospitalist if you want to experience a whole lot of humor and occasionally crappy serious stuff too. Over 3,500 followers agree. Without further delay, here is some good old fashion dementia humor!

    This patient kept coming out of his room and wondering in the hall.

He never went past it. That was cute.

Earlier in the day the patient was getting mad at me while I was trying to assess her.
