What Causes Death Due To Frontotemporal Demential?

I read about a 61yr old male dying from frontotemporal demetial I am not familiar with this. What would the cause of death be? Also I want to ask about a friend of mine (63) that has become very forgetful in the last 8 months. Should I talk with her about this? She repeats herself frequently and it concerns me.

HI
Well come to HCM
Death because of the dementia is not possible and there must be having some other pathology behind this but not the dementia if you are under this impression then this would misguide you, so forget about this, and better to get done the routine cardiac evaluation test, this is the advise I can suggest, have a nice day.
