Retrograde amnesia

In this reflexion, I want to emphasize on how retrograde amnesia can affect the behavior of a five years old child?. I was also thinking what if this 5 years old child is my son and had been given a strong blow to the head that prevents him to remember anything before the accident.

1. How would you begin the process of Recovering your memory? Who would you turn to, Where would you search, and how would you proceed?

First, I would go to a doctor to know what could be the side effects of the medicine. On the other hand, I would seek support on my wife and my family in order to help my son remember some experience before the accident because we represent the closest link to the child. finally, I would consult with a psychologist in order to find the correct way to provide my son mental stability because I would not like that the child will suffer psychological problems after the accident.

2. Please describe the emotional journey you imagine you Would Be Going Through Attempt to reconstruct as you your life. Imagine the feelings You Would have.

It would be a huge emotional pain to me, to see my son going through that difficult situation, in which he can not remember any experience of his short life a child. This situation would be so much easier if I would present these types of symptoms but a child does not have sufficient maturity and knowledge to confront this kind situation. A 5 year old kid does not have sufficient mental development to know what happened? Why is this happening? and how he could solve the problem? without the support of an adult.

3. Suppose You Were Able to pick and choose the memories you wanted to recover from your life. What types of memories would you choose to Retain and what types of memories Might you decide to edit out of your experience Remembered? Positive, negative, painful, happy, angry, frightened, and so on. Please Elaborate and Explain your decision making process Some.

If I could pick and choose the memories to recover information about his life, definitely I would choose memories of his early childhood where he can recognize who is the mother and the father. Earliest maternal and paternal memories can produce larges positives effects in the behavior of a child.
