If you've never seen them before, there are many on-line games on
"gamehouse.com" that can help with memory... my personal favorite is
Super TextTwist. It is a really good game you can play by yourself.
You're given six random letters and have to make as many 3-6 letter
words as you can in a given amount of time. They show you how many words
of each number of letters can be made and as long as you get at least
one of the 6-letter words, even if you don't get the rest, you pass on
to the next series of letters. As the clock runs out, it shows you the
words you missed, so it helps you learn words (and spelling). It's keeps
a running score until you fail to get a 6-letter word, so you play
against yourself to see how high a score you can achieve. Here's the

I do have memory problems. Not just forgetting names of things, but
situations that happened a week ago, or the day after I see a movie,
I forget what it was. Eventually I think of it, but it is scary for
my husband to be talking about an incident, and I don’t remember it.
We have a card game we play with another couple that is called
Quiddler. You start with 3 cards and work up to having 10 cards
dealt to you.
You make words out of your cards dealt to you or discarded by
others. It does make you think and it is very addicting. We love it.

*How is your memory these days? Have you experienced memory loss? If
so, how does it affect your life? Does your faulty memory affect your
life with your loved ones? *

*Memory loss has to do with the myelin sheath. The myelin sheath
coats the neurons in the spinal column to cement memories. TM
destroys the myelin sheath, so that our memories become clouded or we
have no memories at all.*
*The more we repeat things we need to remember, the thicker the layer
of myelin forms around the neurons. Brain games such as Scrabble,
Seduki, Boggle, Crossword Puzzles,and other games help us to reform
the myelin sheath...*
*Any thoughts on this?*
*Many hugs,*
