My mom lost her memory several months ago. It all started when she was confusing me with her cousin and then started screaming that she lost her daughter and that I am not her daughter. She was asking me to find her real daughter which was actually me! I soon contacted my dad and asked him for help as I didn't know what to do in such a situation. My father showed her to doctors and they diagnosed her with the illness of cerebral ischemia. Recently I've read an article in the internet that people with such diagnose live only 5 to 10 years and that really made me scare. Please help me, i would like to know if this data is actually true. I don't want to lose my mom in such a young age.
