[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is this related to a dementia diagnosis? What medication does she take, and could it be a side-effect of one of them? Are there hallucinations? What's the panic about? Is your father someone she perceives to be critical to her safety, or does she trust other people?[/quote] it's not - she is on a lot of medication right now to manage severe pain for which she has upcoming surgery. so that does add to the issue and create some confusion. the panic is about health/ dying etc. she ONLY trusts him and I think in some ways he has 'enabled' some of it where someone else would have maybe handled it differently. but he has done the best he can. I just fear for a time when she doesnt have him. [/quote]
