 PF> We've been managing my mom's cognitive decline recently. The past few
 PF> weeks have been dealing with my mom thinking the neighbors were calling
 PF> her crazy, people driving by the house and looking in while she's cooking,
 PF> and hearing people in her back yard.

 PF> Saturday morning, she fell in the bathroom, breaking her hip and elbow.
 PF> Wasn't wearing her medicalert necklace, she's lost it and didn't tell me.
 PF> She had to crawl to the phone to call me. Ambulance ride to the hospital,
 PF> lots of regular hallucinations combined with no food for 18 hours while
 PF> they try to get her into surgery, then post-anasthesia grogginess. All
 PF> this happened on her 86th birthday.

 PF> After a sleep-deprived weekend, I went to wish an old college friend of
 PF> mine a happy birthday on Facebook. She shares the same birthday as my
 PF> mother and she would always ask how she was doing. I Looked on her
 PF> timeline and saw lots of letters of condolence by her friends and a
 PF> memorial service last week - she was found dead in her house, apparently
 PF> of natural causes. She was 55.

 PF> I want this weekend back.

Really sorry to hear :(
