Dear Lucy,
So Dad now has a UTI which in layman's terms means he has a urinary tract infection.
A UTI can be deadly for an ill or old person as it can become systemic very quickly. It was a systemic infection that caused Anne's heart attack in 4 days.
So, he is on antibiotics which he seems to be responding to so far.
He still slides in and out of dementia, sometimes I don't think he realizes where he is.
He is very tired and weak yet.
So, we are still going one day at a time.
