This brings us back to the question of what is it that makes a person.
If you were to bang your head and loose your memory you would still presumably be the same person. A stroke etc. can cause a change in personality but does that mean a different person suddenly starts inhabiting the previous persons body?
Personally I think that there is something else, some other condition or attribute that makes a person themselves and gives them a unique sense of self awareness. Memory and personality are attributes of that self.
Identical twins can have exactly the same personality but they are still distinctly separate entities.
