[quote=Anonymous]It is so hard. This is similar to what I went through with my dad. His delusions were so intense. One time he thought he set his apartment on fire and was going to get kicked out. He was having significant issues with sleeping, which did not help things. So, definitely find something to help with that. During one hospital stay, his doctors said he hadn't sleep in 4 days. He was finally put on an anti-psychotic - Seroquel. It helped stabilize things enough for him to go back to his assisted living facility. He was quickly moved to the memory care floor. Turns out he had stage 4 pancreatic cancer. I am not sure how much one played into the other. We spent so much time chasing issues with the dementia, we didn't find out about the cancer until a week before he passed. [/quote]
