Women who lose complete memory every few minutes | 60 Minutes Australia
9,660(2012) Imagine waking up one morning and you've forgotten everything about yourself. You don't recognise your face; You don't know your family; You can't even remember your own name. Well, that's what's happened to Nicole Caird and Claire Robertson. Every few minutes their minds wipe clean, stealing every scrap of their memory- from the birth of their children to the reason they're sitting in front of a television camera. It makes interviewing tricky so it's hard to imagine what it must be like living with the condition day in day out. But what's truly alarming is that we could all be at risk because the culprit is a common virus that most of us have lurking in our systems.
