Forgetting the name of a thing is normal at Rush’s age. You start to worry when you forget how to actually use something or even if you forget what something you can’t recall the name of is for.
Sometimes, deflecting to another topic or sub-topic relaxes the mind just enough that the first item you’re searching for just pops up.
I knew someone who got to the point in her 70s where she kept trying to make phone calls on a TV remote and then complained the phone wasn’t working. That ended in dementia.
I’m 73. Have these little brain farts often. They resolve themselves.
Thank you, you read my mind!
Such as it is!:)
I just turned 70, and often find myself searching for the name of things, as well as famous people’s name. Except Trump!!!
As someone once wrote:
“Of all the things I’ve lost I miss my mind the most.”
Forgetting where you left your car keys is normal.
Forgetting what they are FOR, is not.
