I'm back
Hi, I signed off a few months ago, and now I'm back. I live in
Philadelphia now, so I can be closer to my parents. My dad has PD,
and he and mom have no car now since dad drove it THROUGH the garage!!
Thank goodness no one was hurt.
I remember someone talking about hallucinations before; how the person
would see his sons around the house. My dad started seeing me all the
time, then he started seeing strangers outside in the steet. Now it
has gotten much worse - the "people" are in the house and even in the
bed. They frighten him terribly, and seem to be more menacing than
before. He is constantly seeing people now, and I wonder of this is a
new, irreversible phase he's in. He's suffered from some dementia and
general cognitive loss for quite some time, but he's quite "round the
bend" now.
Is this common? Is there anything to help the constant
hallucinations?
