I remember seeing this a while back. I can’t comprehend losing my memory so much I can’t even remember how to draw what I’m seeing correctly. Or I guess in musical viewpoint since I’m a musician I can’t imagine no longer remembering which notes compliment each other to make a coherent song. It’s crazy how the human brain still tries to adapt to function despite these harrowing circumstances.
