I am touched by your story. For very different reasons, I experienced memory loss, altered cognition and a change in personality. Four years ago, I was diagnosed with a rare form of brain cancer. As the tumor grew, the resulting edema or swelling put pressure on my brain. It was like another being occupied my body and controlled my mind. Following the first surgery to remove the brain tumor, I worked diligently to exercise my brain by using the Nintendo Brain Age game daily. I continue to work on regaining and retaining memories. I truly can appreciate the suffering that you have. It is the love of the people in your life, faith and hope that will help you get through.
