Memory gap - how irritating

All of us most likely has forgotten one thing or another. It also is a part of aging and it also is just a product of not listening. You see, my mother has always been a forgetful person, but she forgets minute things. After her Total Abdominal Hysterectomy with Bilateral Salpingo-Oophorectomy (TAHBSO) operation, she just forgot things more. It irritates me sometimes since important stuff are easily out of grasp. There are also times when she'd tell me something and after a minute, she's forgotten it already. I know I should be a little more understanding and be supportive but it just gets on my nerves somehow. I know I would be like this soon, but it's irritating. I love my mom, though. Any experiences with you or someone else forgetting important stuff?

I experience some memory lapses. I just don't know if it has something to do with my ceasarian operation. It is not good to me but I can't do anything about it anymore.

They say that once you've undergone general anesthesia, you are going to experience some amnesia. I think it's true.

It is very annoying and irritating. There this one time when i drove in highway, there was this two turns that i supposed to make a turn and there was a blank moment like a pause, when i realized i already driving on the bridge and gonna passed it through and i don't have any idea how i get there, i just lost the moment about how i got there, what building i have passed.

It's difficult to keep your head on straight if you have a lot of things in mind. My mom writes the stuff she has to do on paper so she won't forget. Eventually, she loses the paper and forgets everything she had written in it.
