Ever since my I have been caring for my mum I have felt my own memory getting worse and worse.....I guess I am not alone in this and it understandably occasionally causes me some worry.
Yesterday someone was telling me , that, apparently the explanation for new mums getting forgetful and scatty is that they have another person who is totally dependant on them to take care of and this becomes so overwhelming that it is difficult for their own memory to function properly as well.
Of course I have no idea if this is true, but it made me think, because , even though my mum doesn't live with me, she is constantly in my thoughts and I spend a lot of time worrying about her in the same way a new mum thinks of little else except her new baby.
Anyway, it made me feel better that maybe this forgetfulness is down to circumstance and temporary, so thought I would share it.
