One of my closest friends confirmed a suspicion I've had for several months.
We've been friends for 65 years, since we raced against each other in Jr. H.S. track meets. He's a Ph.D. retired college professor, university dean. We are both Vietnam Veterans, one week apart in age. Lately, his correspondence has been a bit strange. He's retired in Atlanta. In an email I received today, he writes, "This memory thing is really getting annoying." I last saw him, in person, at our H.S. class members' 70th birthday party.
For myself, I fear dementia more than Covid, even death.
