I'm sorry to hear that you experienced this. How fortunate you were at the ER when this happened! There is considerable evidence that physical exercise can and does help with cognitive function. Make sure you keep active! Check with a local community center and see if they have public exercise offerings. Many times a community center will offer these for free. Our local community and senior centers offer free and low cost weekly exercise sessions as well as group ballroom dancing classes.

Dancing lessons combine the cognitive aspect of learning correlated with the beat of the music and physical motor skills. It can be very beneficial.
