An elderly couple were having increasing problems with their memory.
So, they went to see their medical doctor for advice.
The doctor told them they should start writing down what they wanted.
That evening as they were watching TV together the husband told his wife
that he would like to get them a bowl of ice cream.
His wife said, "Write it down so you won't forget."
Her husband responded, "I don't need to do that. I am just going into the next room."
He was gone a little longer than she expected. Finally, he came back and had prepared a
breakfast with lightly scrambled eggs, bacon and sasuage, and some fruit.
His wife said, "You forgot the toast."
