FORGETFUL PARENT’S LIVING TIMEKEEPER
FOR TWO memory-impaired parents their new-born baby Cian is a living timekeeper. Brave new parents Louise and Geraint Jones from Llantrisant in South Wales, both suffered severe head-injuries that left them with the long-term brain damage and severe memory loss that changed their lives forever. Louise, 29, and Geraint’s long-term memories are poor and their short-term memory is limited to around 24-hours. Geraint, 28, has a memory so short he relies on reminders he sets on his phone to help him complete simple everyday tasks.
