What Is The Life Span Of A Healthy Man?

How long a life span does a health male, 66, expect to have with vascular dementia. He needs care all the time and can not drive but still rides his bike by himself. He repeats questions and forgets what has been told to him about what is happening. This is happening more and more.

He was diagnosted 3 years ago.

Thank you for asking!
That span is totally variable for different race, genders and ethnicities. ALso lifestyles and thousands of environmental factors vary that too. Every country has different life spans. I am sorry bu this is the best i can narrate, usually geriatric age limits has its mo=emory loss issues and it needs help and management by a neurologist for sorting out the cause.
take care
