Re: Short Term Menory loss and Sarcoid

[Guest guest]

Judy,

I highly recommend the Nintedo and the Brain Age games. I went through

neuropsych retesting this year and showed some real improvement. My

children gave me the game system 2 years ago for Christmas with Brain

Age 1 and I have bought Flash Focus and Scrabble. I am currently

getting bored with them so I am going to ask for some different ones for

Christmas. It was the best gift I had had in a long time.

Keep it up and try Flash Focus too. It helps with your vision.
