Almost everyone has experienced that moment of walking into a room and suddenly forgetting why they went there. Names slip from memory. Glasses disappear only to be found on top of the head. Such moments can be frustrating, but they are often harmless and part of growing older.However, there comes a point when memory loss is no longer just a normal sign of ageing.When someone repeatedly forgets recent conversations, struggles to complete familiar tasks, or becomes confused about time and places, it may indicate Alzheimer's disease or another form of dementia. Recognising the difference is important because early intervention can help slow the progression of symptoms and improve quality of life.According to the US National Institute on Aging (NIA), occasional forgetfulness is common with age, but memory problems that interfere with daily activities are not considered a normal part of ageing.
