Loss of memory: Your father may have had a transient ischemic attack of the brain or a problem with his heart to cause him to black out some of his memory, and be incontinent. Report what happened to his regular doctor and have him seen today to prevent more problems. One possibility is a mini-stroke. Another is a heart rhythm abnormality.
