Guest guest Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 Hi . Are you using a gail belt with your father?  One of the worries that are most prevelant with my husband, ....according to his doctor, is to have fall and hit his head.....internal hemoraging is indeed a risk and something that needs to be kept on top of. Best of luck to you and your Dad and Family. I care MJ  Jo >________________________________ > >To: LBDcaregivers >Sent: Monday, October 17, 2011 9:54 AM >Subject: Re: Dad is progressing in a bad direction > > > >Hi everyone > >Dad has had 2 very bad hallucinating, confused, anxiety filled days. The marines have come in the house and told him not to get up from the chair, calling my sister - my aunt's name (his sister) she died in 2005. Afraid of all the imaginary people in the house. Things mentally and physically are going down the path - of very bad ending. > >He is so darn skinny and having trouble swallowing too. Walking is very scary tenuous undertaking which he still tried to do and people encouraging it - but I don't know how he hasn't fallen again. > >He did fall 2 weeks ago, then this bad turn.
