Memory loss for my Father

2023-11-29 14:53:47
My Father is 70 years old and since a year he is having trouble with memory.. He doesn't remember most of the things which happened in the last five years and he is unable to recollect what happened like 1-2hours back . He keeps asking the same question multiple times a day.. He was always a calm and patient guy but now he gets agitated for almost everything,mainly when we don't do as he says .
