Update: she isn't crying much anymore...meds seem to have helped reduce that. She is more paranoid, suspicious, and hallucinating more. Can be quite cranky too. But another med was added to further reduce her aggressive cranky tendencies, and for the most part she is better. But...she can't function as well with dressing, toileting, etc. And her speech recognition and ability for verbal retrieval is really starting to decline now. She's 88, after all, and this disease is slowly robbing her of who she was...
