[SOC] All men need a healthy one

[w9ya]

Actually, a much simpler explanation goes like this:

- If you do not die from the some other part of your body giving out (or
wearing out) before your brain does, then the brain **will** wear out and
cause your death. The brain 'wearing out' is what we call "dementia". i.e.
In ALL cases some part of your body gives up before another and eventually
one of these parts failing will cause your death.
