Memory Issues in the Elderly

If you interact with an elderly person regularly, you might notice that most of them have difficulty remembering things and we often brush this off as part of growing old. As such, we don’t look at memory loss for what it is. In today’s show, we discuss the relationship between memory issues and old age and the diseases that come with it.
