Mind you, there's nothing wrong with Karen's brain. It's just that MS takes your short-term memory, and she will often forget she has said or done things only minutes before. It can be very stressful and frustrating, which is why you need to have a good deal of patience.

Edit: Well, to be fair, MS also shrinks the brain, so there is that... But what I mean is she can still hold a conversation with you, concentrate when I'm reading (enough to ask questions if she doesn't understand something) and interact really well with people.
