Memory includes the ability to store, retain and recall past experiences and information.

It also includes the ability to lay down new memories and later recall them when required.

A survey of people with a brain tumour found that:

  • 50% used memory strategies such as writing notes.
  • 25% forget to do things but will remember when prompted.
