One Big Happy by Rick Detorie for September 18, 2016

Kind of scary, actually…

relative took memory improvement course … and forgot to pay for it! :)

I was going to join an origami club, but it folded.

Poster promoting a memory improvement course on the wall at my college. Somebody wrote on it the day after, “Damn! I forgot to sign up”. (I guess you had to be there)

At his age, you keep on the lookout for straight lines.

Walking through a doorway makes you forget things….TRUE…look it up.

CRS…

When I forget why I have gone into a room I check to see if I have a medical bag or fire hose in my hand.

I love this one. I’m going to try it out on my own grandkids next time they are over!

yiu never know when this will hit you

Yup very scary but part of the aging process and new things are happening to me, my body and my memory every day!

Mother Nature has no end of surprises up her sleeve. Puberty – old age…the time between kinda flew by – I’m guilty. I took it, health, physical, mental, emotional so for granted. Ah well…as Paul Simon said “Memories that’s all that’s left you”.

Very true I had mom went through Dementia first then through medical issues had first benign cell no specialist or primary ever mentioned follow up. Five years later benign cell changed to cancer she was 5% this happens too. Passed away month ago. I know about Dementia and some about Alzheimer neither are treatable. Sister and I know what are future is. As my mom’s sister had Alzheimer and their mom had Dementia.

You know what they say—memory is the second thing to go.What is the first?Ummm…I forget.

Contrary to legend, short term memory is not the first to go, names are first, then nouns, adjectives, and random random words n that order; then short term memory.
