~Ran into a doorframe and said, 'Excuse me'? ~Picked up the receiver of the telephone and then not remember if you were answering the phone, hanging the phone up or fixing to make call? ~Tried to turn off the lamps with the TV remote? ~ Stepped outside and then not remember if you were standing there at the door to go in or had just came out? -Spiz

I am new to this forum, I started to have seizures 4 years ago. My husband and I use to off road race and there are times in my past that I see pictures of me and him and have know recall of those trips. I go to places that we have been before and have know memory that we have been there. It use to bother me but what can you do. Anyone else ith these absent type seizures? Bye

Forgot who you were phoning and asked who they were when they answered? Put the cereal in the fridge? Called a cab and forgot your address? Could'nt remember kids ages? WAIT! What was I writing?

I have forgotten my own phone number. I have forgotten my own age. In my world, 7 plus 3 is 11. ;-) I put the sugar in the fridge once and went CRAZY looking for it the next time I wanted it.
