Go see your doctor: We all have different strengths. Some have photographic memory for names & faces, while others have great direction sense. What's important is that we don't lose our level of function. Check out http://www.Alz.Org/alzheimers_disease_know_the_10_signs.Asp if you're worried about dementia (memory loss + loss of abilities). Your family doctor can initiate screening & evaluation & refer if appropriate.
