My father-in-law saw people too. Some people do and some don't. He saw

children playing a lot. He also had the very vivid dreams that he swore

were real when he was awake, and, to him it was very real. One of his

favorites was to tell us the girls at the nursing home took him dancing

all night. We always got a kick out of that one.

He was never on sinemet as he didn't have the rigidity problem until

very late in the disease. He was in the nursing home his last 1 1/2

years because we could no longer take care of him at home.

If you think there is a possibility that your father may have LBD, there

is a web site. It should be posted in the archives but I can dig it out

for you. My mother has Pick's Disease which is frontal and temporal

lobe dementia. LBD is listed under dementias along with Alzheimer's.
