IT’s been about 3 years since I first noticed my husband had memory problems because he started being unable to drive places he should have known the directions for. Over this time he occasionally told me or other people a few outlandish stories that you knew right away had to be made up. He always forgets where he puts things and then spends hours looking for them. I had a hard time accepting his problem (I still do) because we have been married for 55 years and always depended on each other. Lately he has started accusing me of doing things which I did not do and getting mad at me. After a day or two of this we finally discuss it and he asks for my forgiveness! It’s really hard to deal with. We went to a neurologist and he did blood work and an MRI but said nothing showed up just a short term memory problem.
