Chemo brain -overwhelmed by my life

Hi @Michelle_R, I think the hormone blockers cause a bit of forgetting too. So yes in my view it's a double wammy. I finished chemo in sept 2020 and started tamoxifen in November 2020 after radium. I think things have improved but I do write everything in my phone calender all the time, even small details or prompts. I have a morning routine so that helps too. I think with practice of writing things down, a few crosswords or mind games it helps and improves. You have family too so that's alot at the best if times. Maybe your family can take on some of the remembering of their own things to help. Eg when my son was 15 he worked part time at hungry jacks. His uniform was dirty one day because he didn't put it in the wash in time for his shift. So I said to him, I have to remember everything for everyone so how about you remember when your shifts are and wash your clothes in time for them instead of me trying to remember your shifts and washing your uniform in time. Bingo...life changed. He took responsibility for his own washing from that time forward. Just one example of family members remembering things for themselves. Best wishes
