MIL had a bad afternoon. She refused her meds, tried to pull the IV out, and ended up with an order that someone must be in the room with her all the time. They still plan to move her to a regular room. Mr. Holstein said she did know him but would go from talking sensibly to not making sense at all.

I think she is probably worse than the BIL admitted when he called a couple weeks ago. I've read 36 Hour Day, and some other similar things on dementia and Alzheimer's. I needed to understand what was going on with my mom. I hate to think she'll be in a facility, but there is no workaround I don't think. Hopefully the BIL will speak with social services and find a solution.
