Subject: Bennett's Dementia?
I have an ESL who sounds like he's saying "a nursing home patient with Bennett's dementia..." Has anybody heard of this? I haven't been able to find anything similar, and previous reports say the patient has Alzheimer's.
Thanks!!

Bennett’s fracture is a fracture dislocation at the base of the thumb. A fracture dislocation of the thumb is not uncommon in boxers, rugby players, American football players and football goalkeepers. Specifically, a Bennett's Fracture refers to a fracture of the Metacarpal (thumb) bone at the joint surface with the Carpal (wrist) bones. Due to the position of the fracture fragment, there is some dislocation of the joint.
