Mum died from early dementia - I had to find out if I will too

Liv Heeney, from Birmingham, discovered she carries a faulty gene predisposing her to early onset frontotemporal dementia, a condition that has affected many family members. Her mother, Bernie, passed away from the disease at 54. Liv, preparing for a future with the condition, plans to have children without the gene through IVF and embryo screening. She advocates for more research and funding for frontotemporal dementia, emphasizing it is not just a natural part of aging.
