Talked to my brother last night. Dad is suffering form dementica (sp). A hospice nurse came out last night. SO he will need to be evaluated by a doctor and will
have to go from there. She told my brother to make sure someone is with him at all times. He could very easily walk out of the house and no one would know when he left.. so they have to put a bell on all the doors. Thats the scoop for now. Thanks Janet.

It's just so hard! I dealt with a lot of that with my father-in-law. He finally had to go to a nursing home with a wing that locked down, because he was an escape artist,lol.

That's too bad, Linda. I just hate to hear of our parents having problems. I hope that a change in his meds will take care of it. It's surprising the effects some meds can have. I'll be praying.

I'm so sorry. I know it must be really hard to hear that. All you can do is be supportive. Big cyber hugs going your way.

Thanks girls, I talked to my brother again this evening. The hospise nurse told him totake him to the emergency room since his dr is on vacation. I have not heard from him yet. He was mean again today. It's like something all of a sudden snapped. Will let you know when i hear more. Thanks so much for all your thoughts and prayers.
