Hi, my mother went into hospital for a routine knee replacement 2 weeks ago however she contracted Pneumonia which apparently brought on delirium . We are at our wits end as she went into hospital with all her faculties and has been left spoon fed & incontinent she would be mortified if she understood what she's going through .
I have been in constant contact with the Dr's about the conditon & prognosis but very little is known about delirium . My mother had a ct scan last week which was normal apart from some scarring from a small stroke in 2010. The Pneumomia is clearing but she's still in a bad state of mind and was moved to the geriatric ward
Has anybody got or have any information on this condition please? I feel as though my mother has been taken away and wish that she'd never had the op
