Alzheimer's disease (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dementia

(Other definitions for dementia that I've seen before include "Detain me, having disease of old age" , "Disorder of the mind" , "Neurological condition" , "Detain me, having distressing condition of old age" , "Chronic memory failure" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
