I guess she could but she doesn't strike me as being the kind of person who has an interest in Mars landers. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AstralHorus Posted March 12, 2019 #9 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Sounds like she had a stroke or an aneurism. I�m no Dr. but it seems like that part of her brain that houses those memories where destroyed... I have family members who have suffered and suffer from those, pretty much forgot about whole sections of their life. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have family members who have suffered and suffer from those, pretty much forgot about whole sections of their life. I was going to say this. I had a stroke from a aneurysm breaking. It took months but then the memories came back in a flood. I don't think they all did though. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hemorrhagic strokes usually have REALLY poor outcomes unless the patient happens to have the episode while in the hospital with good docs around immediately. Bore holes? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was having SP and seizures afterwards. I lost a major chunk of memory. It was insane. My arms both started to hurt for no reasons. The I was having breathing problems and it felt like I was being punched in the head. I thought my bad valve finally stuck shut or open. I just laid there waiting to die. 2 weeks later my sister talked me into going to the doctor who sent me to a cardiologist and neurologist. They both said I was really lucky and don't know how I survived. No bore holes. I was already long past the episode. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aztek Posted March 13, 2019 #20 Share Posted March 13, 2019 yea there was a story about a guy in Russia who fell down hit his head, was picked up by an ambulance, brought to a hospital , and he claimed he forgot who he was. but doctors did get his prints without him knowing, and cops found him in a database, he was known mobster. he never forgot who he was, he faked amnesia to hide from cops and rival gang. but yea stroke can wipe your memory, but it's the least of issues with a stroke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
