>>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. Could hitting his head have

caused this downturn?

>>Don't know what I am asking here - I am just sad.
