Yes! I just complained that everything I do takes more time and includes frustration and anxiety over the tasks. I can’t get a lot done! I probably don’t have a lot of productive hours in a given day so I leave too many things not quite done, put on a list which I may or may not remember to return to. I simply cannot multitask anymore. I also don’t easily meet schedules or commitments. I miss appointments, arrive late. Others with MCI and the same difficulties are fortunate to have a husband or wife or bonded friend or personal assistant to actually say what to do when and to get them out and to commitments on time. Living alone with MCI is a almost more of a challenge than I can handle.

Today I think every last one of us past 50 has some sort of MCI…it is not a death sentence. Rather it is a blessing in that we should slow down and prioritize what is really important in our lives…gratefully, Marianne
