Lucia has been experiencing a series of small blockages of the blood flow to her brain for several years. Any of these incidents on their own were not severe enough to cause any noticeable symptoms; in fact, she never even realized that she was suffering from this problem. Over time, however, the additive effect of these “mini-strokes” has led to the symptoms of a neurocognitive disorder. Which describes Lucia's condition?

It seems that the condition is an additive one; with more "mini strokes" comes more symptoms. These blockages impact the brain through oxygen deprivation and can impact performance both cognitively and physically. Without treatment, Lucia can suffer from severe permanent effects.
