 It is a spot of dementia but the hallucinations are more due to malnutrition, apparently - she struggled to eat because of the stomach cancer and then became almost afraid of eating anything. When she was last in hospital, and being drip fed, she perked up considerably.Originally posted by BrilloPad View PostI am pleased she is on the good stuff. Death does not worry me. Pain does.
 
 And I hope she is happy in her own "dream world". I often wish there was dementaia in my family. Far better for the brain to go before the body IMO. Well better for oneself. Not good for those around one.Comment

 Originally posted by BR14 View Postit's not as simple as that, so be careful what you wish for.
 Indeed its not normally a switch where the person just becomes a vegetable its more like bobbing in an ocean alternately drowning and gasping for air with the knowledge you are very unlikely to be rescued. Very sad.Comment
