I personally think they can. Let me explain my opinion. Ok so when I was 2, I had a really crazy siezure. I was on the floor shaking, my eyes were pure white because they were rolled all the way back. Pretty much everything that a crazy siezure is. Now in my teens and I can't remember a lot. I can read something like 10 times and when I put it down I can't remember the 3rd word. And in school when I used to be called out to read, I would always hesitate and end up shaking. I can read, and I don't stutter. But I had the feeling like I was about to say everything wrong because I forget what I'm reading. And when I'm at home and I get bored I get a movie and put it in. When I go to sit down and wait for it to start playing, I forget what I put in the DVD or VCR player. It's crazy. I'd say I have a short term memory loss from over 10 years ago( my siezure)
