I will remember
Andrew Engel was confused.He was sitting in a university class,but had no idea what the other students were talking about.He had done his homework,paid attention to lectures,and taken notes,but nothing was familiar.“Everyone is so much smarter than I am,” he thought.It was a strange feeling,as he had always been a good student in high school.
He felt even more confused the rest of the day.He got lost,again,on his way to his favorite café.Back at his dorm,he greeted his roommate with a “Hi,how’s it going?” Meanwhile,he was thinking,“What is his name again?”
He was acting like a person with Alzheimer’s disease (老年痴呆症) — but he was only 17.What’s worse,he began having trouble finding the right words when speaking.He asked,“What’s for dinner?” after he had just eaten.
His parents were worried and took Andrew to see a doctor.A brain scan (扫描) made it clear:Andrew had a malignant brain tumor (恶性脑肿瘤).It was pressing on the part of the brain that makes new memories and could be fatal (致命的) if it weren’t removed.Andrew was scared,but he was relieved that there was a reason for his odd (奇怪的) behavior.
“He had amnesia (健忘症),” said Andrew’s doctor.“This is the kind of memory that people lose as they get older.”
Memories are imprinted on the brain like data on a hard drive (硬盘).All the information Andrew had “downloaded” before the tumor was good.But the tumor had damaged the “software” that is used to save new information.
Doctors removed the tumor.The cancer was gone,but Andrew’s memory was still poor.He was told he would probably never go back to school.Andrew had long wanted to get a degree and work in health care,but it seemed that his dream wouldn’t come true.
“Even though they told me this,I knew I wanted to go back to school,” Andrew said.“I wanted to get my memory back.”
Andrew began by auditing (旁听) an English class at a nearby college.In class,he wrote detailed notes and reread his notes several times a day,then retyped them and the textbook material.He studied twelve hours a day,seven days a week.He worked ten times harder than other students.In 2007,at age 29,he graduated with a bachelor’s degree (学士学位).Six months later,Andrew found a job.
Of course,an imperfect memory still makes Andrew upset.He has to carry maps and lists when he goes shopping.He likes movies but forgets plots (情节).He can’t remember scores of his favorite football team but he can tell you if they won.And when they lose?Sometimes,he says,it’s good to forget.
