Earliest Memory Lab


The earliest memory I can recall involves only visual stimuli.  I was between 2-3yrs old.  In the memory, Im with my mother and father in a hospital room.  An elderly woman is lying in the bed, and she has distinct red/golden curly hair.  This memory has two viewpoints.  In one, the view is looking from the ground up toward the bed (Id assume I was sitting or even standing).  The second view is from a much higher view (Id have to believe I was being held by one of my parents).  I can also recall looking at a mirror that was atop a small dresser.  Aside from that, I cannot remember anything else.  Later in life, I stumbled across a picture of my grandmother and realized that she was the woman in my memory.  She died before I turned 3 and, as I was later told, was in a hospital for several months before passing away.
