Hello Lemmy. I have completed my bachelor’s degree and will start a master’s program in April. This means that I am lucky to have a lot of free time in the next few months. I want to take this opportunity to spend time with my grandma, because she is very old and I probably won’t have that chance again. My question is, how would you spend time with your grandma if she was still alive or you had the necessary time?


That is true.
My Grandma was just old though, she didn’t suffer from Alzheimers, at least she was never diagnosed with it. It’s pretty common on that side of my family for the short term memory to go. My Dad and Uncles all had the same issue the final years of their lives. My Dad died three years ago at the age of 88 and while he was still laying down long term memories, it was a struggle with him.
Even now at the age of 56 I find myself trying to remember words. I’m talking about common words too, not things tucked away in the basement of my vocabulary.
