Alzheimer's Test Brain Teaser - Find The Missing Letters and Numbers

Posted in: , ,

Atala and I watched one of the Oscar award winning movies that had to deal with Alzheimer's Disease. Titled Still Alice, the film was about a language professor who develops an early onset form of the disease when she was just 50 and in her prime, family wise and in her career too. Expecting her first grandchild, her son about to graduate medical school, and touring the world as a top speaker in her field, it is a punch in the gut when Alzheimer's comes knocking.

The film got us thinking and talking of ways to keep the disease and other memory loss conditions at bay as one gets older. Not that there's really much one can do if it turns out to be genetic. But otherwise, brain teasers are encouraged, and I bring you one below. Try it out and tell me how you do...


You should be able to complete all 3 tests within 30 seconds or even less.

1.  Find the letter C from below. There are two of them.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

2.  If you have already found the letter C, now find the digit 6 from below. There are two of them.

3.  Now find the letter N from below. It's a little more difficult. There are two of them.

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMNMMMM
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMNMMMM
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM


How did you fare? Were you able to find the C, 6, and N?..lol.

Study says if you are able to pass this 3 tests, you can cancel your annual visit to your neurologist.

Your brain is great and you're far from having Alzheimer Disease. Congratulations!

It took me about a minute to see all of them, and I felt it will be fun to share.

And its not a joke. . . There is C, 6, and N,  and there are two of each...
