It turns out that amyloid plaques might not be the gold standard for diagnosing dementia. At low stages of frailty you are less likely to express dementia with the same burden of plaques than people with higher levels of frailty. (top line is high frailty)

Caring for older people with frailty can be a burden but there is often a lot of love involved. “A privilege” said one person

All of us learning about wider determinants of frailty and how to avoid it if possible in old age. Nice podcast from Linda Fried covering the same topic.
