People with memory loss can sometimes sound very sure about something that you know can't be true, for example being convinced that a relative hasn't visited recently, or simply insisting on something having happened that can't have done. In this episode we look at different examples of when this happens, and then explore the memory mechanisms that underlie the issue. As always we offer some evidence-based suggestions for how to respond so that everyone wins.
