Talk about living in a nightmare? This is a crazy story. Well worth the watch.

The remarkable and poignant story of Clive Wearing, a man with one of the worst cases of amnesia in the world. Once a renowned conductor and musician, Clive was struck down in 1985 by a virus that caused massive damage to his brain. Against the odds, doctors managed to save his life but he was left with a memory that spans just seven seconds.

One of my clients has a guy who had his memory re-set back like 10-15 from years from an accident. I'm not sure if he has re-learned things or gotten better, but at one point he thought he was on his first marriage.

Yeah, for some reason the Herpes virus passed through the blood-brain barrier which it's not supposed to be able to do, and it destroyed his hippocampus which is responsible for memory.
It's a freaky condition to have. I can't imagine going through life like that.

Interestingly, Hillary Clinton is hit with this affliction every time she’s put under oath. What a coincidence!

i'm not sure what's worse; 7 second memory or those people who remember EVERY SECOND OF THEIR LIFE and can recall instantly what they were doing any hour of any day for the past 50 years.

Get out of here. How many times did Trump plead the 5th? Was it 53 or 54 times?

Howard Cosell was reportedly one of those people. I remember hearing him say and in interviews referring to his photographic memory.
I am glad to not be like that. Was tested in the psych department in college my first go-around and was found to remember 93.7% of everything my senses pick up. As I get older I am starting to have a slight “loading data” delay in remembering ordinary stuff.
