Yes senility is the answer, I referred various dictionaries they are telling same as Vinod, and do-tage is not related to a fool at any stretch of imagination.

Vinod said:   1 decade ago
Regular payment made into a fund by an employee towards a future pension is superannuation. Losing mental abilities with age is senility. Imbecile is a stupid person. Period of life in wich a person is old and weak is dotage.

So answer is senility.
