Hi,
im just looking for someone to talk to.
My nan went into hospital repeatedly because she kept falling over at home. She had a water infection but nothing drastic. she was healthy before this, no signs of memory loss or instability. This happened over a period of about 3 months. She has now been in hospital for 7 weeks. the doctors could not find the problem or why she was deteriorating. she started refusing food about 4 weeks ago and was talking and shouting words like "mum" or shouting my name constantly. I could talk to her to a certain extent but couldn't hold a meaningful conversation. she's now at a stage where she wont eat or drink and cant talk at all. she just looks at me. She's starting end of life treatment but this has all happened so quickly. has anyone ever experienced anything like this? the speed is horrifying.
thanks,
Lewis
