A close relative is currently in hospital they have terminal cancer. We have been told they hasn’t got long left, the thing is they are extremely agitated, verbally abusive and paranoid since being there and its so unlike them. They thinks that people are trying to kill them (including us) and we want them to be in this situation, making all sorts of non sensical stories and they are also sometimes being disruptive on the ward, this is really unlike then and we are obviously very distressed by this. My question is, is there anything that can be done or is this what the last couple of weeks or days will be like? What are peoples experience of this kind of agitation/paranoia at end of life? Thank you
