I did the same as you, searched for all the information I could find on a "know-your-enemy" basis. From talking to our GP and consultant I learned that it can develop very differently from one patient to another. The initial challenges are mostly about language and the frustration as it is eroded. The later stages seem to depend on how much the frontal lobe becomes involved.
