The important thing is that he still retains essential memories. Many patients with this type of memory loss forget how to do basic things, like walking, speaking, or recognizing numbers and letters.

Chapter 39 Oprah continued, "For your information, patients with depression often have brain cells in a near-stagnant state. Various functions of the brain diminish, leading to delayed reactions and reduced memory capacity. And there is also intermittent amnesia. Doctors explained that my inability to remember certain people and events might be a protective mechanism of the brain. It prevents me from recalling individuals or incidents that could cause distress." Burgess had reviewed Oprah's past medical reports and knew about her severe depression.

How do we treat this?"

Aiden's accident seems to have erased all memory of me, his mind transported back to the time before we met. "I'm the only one he doesn't remember," I murmur, feeling hurt. Mom looks to Dr. Hale to explain Aiden's condition. Dr. Hale clears his throat. "The traumatic brain injury has caused some damage to areas involved in memory processing. He's exhibiting signs of focal retrograde amnesia." Mom lifts one eyebrow in curiosity, as do I, narrowing my eyes. "It's a type of memory loss specifically related to certain people or events," he explains. "Why might he not remember her specifically?" Mom asks, looking at Dr. Hale.

However, let me provide you with a brief explanation. Anterograde amnesia refers to a form of memory loss wherein the affected person is unable to create new memories.
