Raylin, Doris, my PWP, has been in rehab since the end of may. Since she had a fractured sacrum she had taken very strong pain medications. The result was her benign hallucinations became frightening delusions and her night "sleep" was fraught with nightmarish "dreams." Respite was found when she began taking seroquel - a bipolar medication, but useful for Parkinson's hallucinations.
