[|Human|] OK, my 84 year old mom was hospitalized yesterday because she began acting not like herself. This occurred 2 days after having minor foot surgery . She began mumbling, then mimicking then speaking clearly but the words made no sense . She said she was watching TV & everything became jumbled, she thought she saw my niece and nephew on the TV then told my sister-in-law that things were coming in from both sides. Anyway, I spoke with her this morning by phone and she completely believes that my brother & family and the doctor s and nurses are in some kind of a conspiracy to put her into the hospital and to keep her there. What can this be?
[|AI|]  Hi there. Thank you for posting your question with Chat Doctor. I will do my best to help you.  As you describe it here, it sounds as though your mother is manifesting symptoms of dementia. If this is arising as a result of a small stroke or TIA then she may improve quite soon. She will probably need a CT scan to assess her situation better. This is one of those situations where you will just have to wait and see how things unfold over the next week or so. I hope it goes well for her.  I hope that I have answered your questions fully and been of some help.  If you have any more questions please contact me again anytime.  Chat Doctor.
