1 1  ## Person with dementia
2 2  
3 -1. Peter is a 75 year old with moderate a case of Alzheimer dementia living at home with his wife. He can function in normal daily life within his comfort zone decently, especially with Catherine's help, but often forgets to eat or drink for long periods of time when alone. However, he's defensive about his inability to be completely self sufficient, and will get annoyed if he's reminded of it often, such as reminding him too much to do something, or being asked why he left the meal prepared for him uneaten. This causes Catherine to always worry about her husband whenever she is away.

4 4  Peter studied mechanical engineering and used to be very into new technology and mathematics. As an engineer, he even worked for one of Netherland's largest tech companies. He was one of the first persons to have a computer at home and he used to spend hours and hours in his study on his computer.
5 5  Playing the piano and the flute used to be Peter's greatest passion. Unfortunately, he has started to become deaf, disabling him to play anymore, because he does not hear all tones anymore. Nevertheless, his music knowledge is still very good and even though his fingers do not move as accurately, some songs like Für Elise by Bach he still knows by heart.
6 6  In Peter's free time, he likes to solve Sudoku's. Although he used to solve 7 star sudoku's, he can now hardly solve the one star sudoku's.
