I will definitely let you know the outcome of my test. It will be sometime after the 1st. Thanks girls :) I can't express how happy I am to be able to communicate with someone that gets it.

I also have memory loss and it is very frustrating!! I'll be talking and then I just forget what I was trying to say. I also forget names of people and objects and how to spell words I have known how to spell forever! Sometimes I think is it just because I'm getting older or am I developing Alzheimer's!

Same thing for me with the memory problems, loss for words and sentence completion. This does have a feeling of brains, getting worse as time goes by.

I also have memory loss and lose words all the time. My family also helps me with words. I'm a talker, especially with the family and sometimes they get frustrated with me because I'm unable to get through what I'm trying to say! It's so frustrating. I'm a teacher, can you imagine? Often I feel very dumb. My students are understanding, for the most part. Sometimes they will tell me sometime that I just said and I don't remember saying it.
