Rare form

Larry was in rare form last night. Watching the local news there was a story about a new kidney cancer treatment clinical trail. After it was over Larry asked me to go get his kidney medication. Told him he didn’t have kidney cancer. He insisted he did. About fifteen minutes later there was a commercial for a diabetic drug. He asked me to give him a shot for his diabetes. Told him he didn’t have diabetes. Had to explain he had Progressive Supranuclear Palsy. He asked me what drugs I was giving him. Told him laxatives. This was all leading up to him having to take a dump. That was real.

I do have UTI and constipation in mind when he says these things. So far I think it is just delusions.

You did make me laugh, I can so identify with this. Mum had me making egg & chips one night, I thought for her tea, it was an unusual request but she was adamant, turned out it was for "the children" that was me & my brother about 40 years ago !!!

Glad to see you still haven't loss your sense of humor, it's a must to stay sane.

Made me smile.
