A case of a mother who can’t recognize her family:
The 45-year-old mother of four suffers from prosopagnosia, sometimes known as face blindness. She cannot recognise the faces of her children, her husband or even herself, after a virus struck little more than two years ago, causing inflammation in her brain and permanently harming the temporal lobe.The loss of key parts of Claire’s memory has proved traumatic and has profoundly disrupted the sort of relationships most of us take for granted. Every day is a battle.
