dementia?

it was time to pick claire up from sch at 1.15pm

i left hme with helper to perform our daily job.

helper, j was sent to the supermarket to buy some grocery stuff while i went to pick up claire up from sch. she was her usual unkempt-haired self when i saw her.

we were happily chatting away as i told her that joy was waiting for her at home to get ready at 2 pm for a haircut and shopping at parkway, while i would go for my facial.

when we got home, claire was looking hi and low for helper j. in the room, no one was in sight! the rooms bore no footsteps of her too! it was strange that we did not hear her 'yes, mei mei, aunty is coming!'

i was also feeling little funny. checking with joy, that was all i heard,"mom, didn't aunty go out with u to pick mei mei?'

"aiya...how could i forget?"

as she had not mobile for contact, i had to drive out again. she must be wondering,"where has madam gone to?" i could imagine her blur look....haha.

true enough, upon reaching claire's sch, i saw her standing there waiting.....

i related the incident to her and she just smiled...afterall, she wasn't very expressive in english due to vocab limitation.

frankly, i was feeling really tired afte the exams though i had taken a good 1-week break off classes.

i began to wonder if it was due to the 'fish oil' brand of pdt that i started taking...everytime i consume it, i felt that my brain went blank...i recalled the sales lady told me,"some people feel nauseous after taking it...so u go slow!"

many years ago, i was taking evening primrose pdt and i experienced the same feeling too....

in the night, i was telling hubby that i might really hit dementia as i age, and might forget the way to come home....

haha, incidentally, he was also telling me that he could foresee his 晚年居住在天桥底下，因为得了老人痴呆症，不认得回家的路！

sounds so pathetic, right? i told her, "as long as i'm around, 我一定把你揪出来！" well, did the man really think that it's so easy to leave my 黄家掌？慢慢等吧！哈哈，just for laughs...
