I am supporting my 76yo grandmother through stage 4 bowel cancer which has spread, prognosis from her oncologist nurse is 6 months she has just started a new chemo treatment, she was hospitalised with confusion over the weekend and discharged back home on Sunday with antibiotics, the confusion hasn’t improved and seems worse at night where she has fallen asleep on the stairs and stops answering her phone to us and does not recognise me when I have gone there to check on her, she refuses anyone to live in with her she likes her independence and can be quite stubborn. I have spoken to her GP who said she is going to arrange a care package for her to ensure her safety. What I’m asking is - is this delirium a path to the end or can she improve? She is eating and drinking and communicating during the day with everyone as normal. What am I looking out for and what do I do if this doesn’t improve. The hospital or the GP haven’t given me any information and I’ve never been through this before so unsure what to do, or what to expect.
