Observation

At this stage George is now going to stay in hospital for another night for observation.

He is now able to stand without others holding him up which is a great improvement. They do not know what caused the turn yesterday but it looks like the symptoms have now gone. I am very aware that he has mixed dementia and part of this is vascular dementia which is is caused through mini strokes. I have never niticed him having one of these but he must have been having these for some years. They checked him out yesterday for this but saw no signs of this, fingers crossed. Those with mixed dementia often have a stroke or heart attack unlike those with solely Alzheimer's dementia.
