I was, of course, being sarcastic (as usual). However, I can say from experience, that I had much more faith in the 55 year old pharmacists than the 25 year olds. The number of "stupid" phone calls and questions I got from the younger ones would amaze you. (BTW, the big bottle/little bottle comment is derived from what I frequently jibed my friend Billy with, a pharmacist)

Air tag from Apple may be your next best friend. Have one on all keys, (forgot to take it off today at dealership, watched on my phone where my car was taken for a drive) have one in wallets. And one on the cat harness.
All of our kids and grands have them on their pets, and keys. 2 year battery life, and if the get wet still work (dunked in water dish more than once). You can only track a tag from one owner, unless you put out a Lost Alert, then those keys that fell out of your golf bag can be found by anyone that comes close to keys with an IPhone. Inexpensive and better than tile for us. It’s a fail safe for Just In Case you Can’t Find your Keys

Are the exercises you were given able to be shared?

There was a memory article that I was reading recently that reminded everyone that if you can remember that you forgot something it isn't as serious as if you're unable to remember that you forgot something. Seems to make sense to me.

The exercises are things like memory games (Concentration - there are apps), word search puzzles (again there are apps), etc. Memory exercises. Games that involve seeing things and having to remember them. She also suggested taking up a musical instrument and I mentioned I was already playing Sax and have started learning the cello. She said playing musical instruments is excellent for your brain and memory. |

I understand. When I forget something it is pretty much gone. My wife often mentions things we discussed or did and I have no recall of them.

It will be an exercise just to push the right buttons on that thing.

That is a BEAST!!!!
I am a Fitness Coordinator at a retirement facility and retired nurse (and a snowbird!) I teach classes and work with the residents to help prevent memory loss. The best exercises for memory are where you need to coordinate your body parts (as in doing one thing with the arms and something completely different with your legs!) I highly recommend Silver & Fit videos on You-tube. Many can be done in a chair (and they are challenging in the chair!) and best of all they are free!!!! Good luck!!! |

I think this would work well for anyone that has to take pills 4 times per day. |

Good luck to you sir. Geriatrics do not seem to be found anymore in the non VA world. Thank you for your service.
