My wife and I are getting older and unlike me, I think her memory's getting bad.
Some days she struggles to remember what it was for breakfast that she had.

She struggles to remember where she puts things, which make them hard to find!
And she will ask me the same question several times a day as if she can't keep the answer in her mind.

The day and month sometimes she struggles to remember.
So she might say "is this the 30th of November?" When it's. the 1st day of December.

Could she get by alone With her memory getting bad? Some days I'm not so sure she could.
But luckily for her she has me around to help her because my memory's still damn good!

Some days he struggles to remember what it was for breakfast that he had.
