Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is the second most common cause of early-onset dementia behind Alzheimer's disease, typically appearing between 40 and 60 years of age. However, few studies have looked at the personal experiences or coping styles of people with FTD. Researchers will interview people with FTD and their caregivers to understand their experiences with the disease. This information will help create better treatments and therapies for those affected by FTD.
