I spoke to my Dad tonight and had quite a strange conversation. Last week he told me he won a drawing at his Assisted Living facility where he lives for the family. He asked that I arrange it with my brothers family. My Dad and brother are having trouble connecting and it is getting harder for my Dad. I scheduled the dinner for this coming Sunday. Tonight he informed me it was really only for one person which he found out about today, but he wants to keep it the way we have it and we will pay the difference. In continuing the conversation, he informed me he has had chest pains the last 2 days and bad headaches. He told his nurse, she looked at his tylenol which we had for him and sait it had expired proceeded to throw it away. He said the nurse gave him some and he should ask for more if he needs it. I called the nurse to ask about the chest pains and the tylenol. The nurse knew nothing about this and nothing was written in his chart.
My question could he be hallucinating and imaging this whole episode. This has never happened before. Have we entered a new stage of this alzheimer's.
I sure would appreciate any help. Thanks Cheryl
