Dementia is the leading cause of death in the UK

Huh? Not heart disease, cancer, or stroke?

โ€œ They didnโ€™t tell me what I should do if I did detect a problem.โ€

Set your soduku to an easier level. ๐Ÿ™‚
That reminds me of this

So, probably superior people who have grain power should beware?

No, we just recognize it sooner.

I have experienced significant cognitive decline since the onset of COVID-related novel seizures. It takes me about 24 hours to recover when one hits. Never had them before being exposed.

Information that used to be readily available at my fingertips I now struggle to recall. Ironically, the field where my company regards me as a subject-matter expert is still in there, and I can recall specific sections of state code, chapter and verse, even hours after a seizure. Just don’t ask me who the new client is that I talked to; I will need to check my notes.

It’s frightening for someone who built a career on their brainpower to watch it slowly fading away. I used to be able to crank out pages to detailed reports and write articles with no effort.

My latest report took me three solid days to compile and I was only going over 167 pages of data to summarize. The attorney still gave it a big thumbs up and stated he could win for my client based on what I presented, but it was a painful slog.

Thanks, Fauci, may you rot in hell.

Your post sounds extremely cogent and articulate. You are probably being very hard on yourself. I find it interesting that they equate ‘education’ with cleverness/intelligence. There is no true correlation. Some of the most intelligent people I have ever known are only high school graduates.

I graduated with a 4 year degree at 20 so that means one less year in college so does that give me an extra year? They didn’t mention Masters work but ass-u-me that’d take it back. Seems the solution could be never getting diagnosed.

Perhaps because most smart folks are very open minded


Don’t be so open-minded that your brains fall out.
