There are very few people that have complete and total recall so in that sense anyone and everyone can suffer from memory loss. Memory loss is connected with the aging process but it can take many forms; short term, long term, the inability to overwrite exisiting memories. None of these by themselves is necessarily a sign of dementia, dramatic reduction in memory function particularly when combined with other issues may suggest the advice of health care professional should be sought.
