Dementia
Los pensamientos afloran rápidamente a la superficie de su cabeza y huyen hacia el enorme espacio vacío de su vida. ¿Qué fue lo que quisiera decir? Dementia, como un ladrón en la noche, se había robado de su memoria y sus palabras.
English Translation - This is what I want to say:
Thoughts rise rapidly to the surface of her head and flee towards the vast empty space of her life. What was it that she wanted to say? Dementia, like a thief in the night, had robbed her of her memory and her words.

Demencia
Los pensamientos afloran rápidamente a la superficie de su cabeza y huyen hacia el enorme espacio vacío de su vida. ¿Qué fue lo que (ella) quiso decir? La Demencia, como un ladrón en la noche, se (le) había robado de su memoria y sus palabras.() This is not strictly necessary, but it makes more clear that it is a woman.
le You could use "le" instead of "se", but it is not necessary. I think that using "le" in the phrase makes it more similar to the english phrase, but with the "se" it sounds better and doesn't lose the meaning.
Great job!!!

*In this part, i prefer to use this verb: 'privar', because of the context. It-s more poetic and fits better!
