Disoriented

1

Dad was disoriented and angry. He was trying to stand up and leave so he could take care of things at home. His mind was racing and he hadn’t slept all night. His hands were in constant motion like he’s fixing something or cooking. He has a fascination with food and he’s always worried about everyone getting enough food.

His hallucinations continue. He’s seeing cats, dead friends, a gold watch his mother gave him, cars, boats, trains and constant activity around him. I get tired watching him!

I want you to know that I am praying for your family. Your father sounds like he has lived a full life and touched many people along the way.I hope for you his passing is near and your mother will be well soon.

My father passed away in February after he was diagnosed with cancer. He was only sick for 6 weeks and otherwise always healthy. I never experienced the thought or even knowing he would die. It happened so suddenly that I sometimes wish we could have talked about death together.

Unfortunately, you have been overwhelmed with healthcare issues. It is sad to know we are at their mercy. My father died at home but we had to deal with 6 weeks of Dr. appts, tests and waiting the endless game to get a diagnosis.

I wish the best for you and your family. Take time to care for yourself.
