Lost Memories...

Recently there have been two popular movies about Alzheimers disease. If you get Alzheimers you slowly lose your memory.

The first one was a Korean movie: An eraser in my head, and the other one was called Memories of tomorrow, with Ken Watanabe. He is famous now in Hollywood because he was in The Last Samurai.

These movies are about people getting this sickness while they are still quite young, but usually older people get it.

There`s another kind of sickness people where people lose their memories. A man in Dallas, Texas walked out of his house one morning and forgot his name and where he lived. A few weeks later just by chance someone who knew him saw him and helped him. That is called amnesia and it`s not usually for ever, but Alzheimers is a very sad sickness. It gets worse and worse and eventually memories are lost for ever.

What are your best memories?

And if you found out you would lose your memories what would you do? Maybe it`s important to make each day special. Tell me what you think!
