Never in a million years would I have thought that my husband would lose his mind at such a young age.
We still can’t believe what the root cause was but thankfully we got it all sorted out.
It all started with “honey, have you seen my keys?” a few months ago.
We didn’t pay too much attention to it at the time: things were tough with work, retirement, finances, etc.
When it happened again a few days later, we shrugged it off again.
And looking back, he mixed up his friend’s names once over dinner and nearly forgot to pay the check!
Like I said, we didn’t think much of it. But in just a matter of weeks, Larry’s forgetfulness and brain fog was definitely catching our attention… and it got worse.
“It will go away sooner or later”, Larry thought and kept going on as ‘normal’ as he put it.. but to tell you the truth, it wasn’t normal for me.
When Larry forgot my name one morning, I finally convinced him to see a doctor.
The doctor said Larry had severe brain fog and the only solution to stop it was to go on a pretty aggressive prescription.
