Memory Loss and Lapse In Time



My quest for to get more women to understand the happenings in their bodies led to my forming a Whatsaap Teaching Group. Here ,I teach the symptoms one after the other. One one particular day the title was:Memory Loss /Lapse in Time.Ihad gone on and on to tell of how on countless occasions I had gone into the kitchen to grab a drink only to get there and utterly forget what I had come to get. At other times, I may get to the kitchen and suddenly  go blank on why I was there in the first place.



Sometimes,in the middle of a gist I could go blank on my next line of thought. I wasn’t alarmed because I had read about the symptoms this inclusive.



A member of the group got inspired to share her experience s thus;The whole family was set for church, then it struck her that she hadn’t taken her Bible. She had gone in in the hope to get it but it wasn’t there.The whole family began searching for the Bible after a long futile search, they all decide to go to church without her Bible. On entering back into the car, she decides to search her handbag that had been with her all the while. Lo and Behold! There it was! She said she felt very embarrazed  and stupid.Lol!



This happens to many, very often and they tend to beat themselves thinking something is terribly wrong with them but It’s not true, they are still absolutely normal.



To all experiencing this symptom,I say it will go away just as it came and you are not ALONE.
