its v common that memory fails when one ages...
if she cant recall e recent events but yet still rem the past, its
not a bad news, at least we know that her memory is still somewhat
there, jus that in tierms of encoding new memories, might b a
challenge for her.
u shld b glad that e doc ruled dementia out, cos it can be v
difficult to take care of such patients. plus, it might not be a
bad thing either....she wont b able to recall how bad her condition
is...and wont remind herself constantly...
there is nothing one can do about a degenerative brain...
