On memory loss and aging

Here is an interesting article which discusses whether your memory is normal for your age.  It has a good list you can read through, to determine what's a normal memory mistake and what is not.  For example it says it is normal to forget an acquaintance's name but not the name of a close loved one.

And happy Independence Day to our friends in the U.S.!

I often find myself wondering if what I forget is normal. It's such a frightening thought.

If only we could hold memory like a computer does

Inasmuch as I've blogged, more than once, that I'd gone though an entire day thinking it was one day of the week when, in fact, it was another; and though it's not exactly the same, but close enough, it's good to know "It is normal to not know the exact date (to be off by a day or two)".
