Hey Dr. Samuel.. not sure where to start but my mother is 62. she was hospitalized on the 9th of May. she had been suffering from diarreah, nausea vomitting and loss of apatitie for almost a month before i got her to agree to let me take her to the er. they said she had a stomach infection and was treating her for that..they did tons of tests..finally said they thought she was bleeding somewhere in her stomach and gave her blood. on the 13 while she was still in the hospital her husband passed away. he had a heartattack at home..she left the hospital so we could make funeral arrangements. when i took her back to the er a week later for them to readmit her..of course she was still ill and grieving on top of that. they said they could find nothing wrong with her and sent her home. she has gotten better none of the symptoms she had before only now she has begun to talk crazy..out of her mind stuff. she doesnt know the day or time. she knows who i am but talks as though her husband is still alive..she asks me all the time if he has made it home, or did jay come home last night, where is jay...etc...looking for the school bus like she is waiting on me to come home from school...im 39yrs old...what do i do? should i wait to see if she comes around..or do i take her to the er or specialist? im afraid if they send her for mental evaluation she will get hurt because she has to be assisted and watched all day..please help me.. sincerelly Liz
