5. I think it's real.

Oct 2022

My friend is 65 like me. She's been having serious memory issues lately and changes in her behavior.

While she doesn't believe she's had Covid, she's also lost 15 pounds because she lost her sense of taste.

Her sister and I are concerned -- and now her doctor is concerned. My friend got lost on her way to the doctor yesterday -- 45 minutes while one mile away from the office.

Plus, my friend has a family history of Alzheimer's (grandmother) and had chemo for two different cancers (chemo brain).

Unfortunately, I believe her life is going to change very soon.
