Annu, when you say short term..how far do you mean? And yes or no?

      She likely will eventually, but then again you may get lucky. Usually Alzheimer’s patients have terrible short term memory, but some of their long term memory (from way back when they were kids) can amazingly stick around. It’s one strange disease!!

      Alzheimers only short term memory is effected but long term memeory remains intact thats why patient can tell all past events without any fault.
