Never heard of childhood dementia before, and apparently many people were like me before watching the video, so I am spreading awareness.

This genuinely felt like a weird scam to me. I had no idea it existed, but apparently there's a whole host of childhood conditions that can cause childhood dementia.

That's very upsetting.

The donation link is above all of the social media (Facebook, Twitter/X, etc.) ones so the focus seems on bringing in money rather than raising awareness.

Nations used to have functioning government systems that would fund this stuff - not just in children but in adults too. But right-wing parties seem in control of everything lately, thus such children that provide less tangible benefits to society will get triaged in terms of available funding.
