In “AN INTRUDER CALLED FTD” you will find a deeply moving account of how frontotemporal dementia (FTD) completely transformed our family’s life, especially Millito’s. This is not a medical book, nor a story with a guaranteed happy ending; it is a true story of struggle, hope, melancholy, and sometimes humor. Throughout each page, I share the lessons we learned as we adapted to an unexpected intruder who challenged us day after day.

Beyond the personal story, this book provides practical and accessible information about the main forms of dementia, helping readers identify and differentiate their symptoms. You will find clear guidance to understand the particularities of each type of dementia and to face the difficulties that arise with a diagnosis. In addition, it includes a practical caregiver’s guide, designed to support those, like me, who are at the forefront of caring for a loved one, offering tools, tips, and strategies to manage daily challenges more mindfully and less alone.

This narrative stems from the desire to share our experience, provide companionship and understanding to those in similar situations, and offer reliable information for making informed decisions. “AN INTRUDER CALLED FTD” is, above all, a testimony of resilience, love, and the importance of never losing hope—a story that touches the heart and nurtures the mind.
