Thank you, I so appreciate your reply.

We are so lost. We have gotten him to talk to us a lot, but most of it does not make sense, is not true (true to him, but not true), or is somewhat dillusional/reckless/and none logical thinking - it seems he does not know real from non-real.....how do we respond to that? What do we say? I do not feel it is healthy to "pretend" a long with him - is that wrong of me? We do not show anger or frustration, but we do sometimes have to tag team with each other as it sometimes takes a step away and a few deep breaths to continue listening when you know this person looks like him, but is not talking like the son that you raised.

I think part of it is the medication that the hospital Dr. put him on and I am praying that once we get him established with ONE stable Dr. that will improve.

Thank you for your help and your group hug - I'll take all you have to offer!
