What happens on the other
hand if your cognitive capabilities? Is it still possible to speak of
creativity in dementia? Dementia is so destabilizing that in his
"Satire" Governable writes: "The worst of damages is dementia

ate with him the night before and not even that of his children who he gave birth
to and who he grew up".
