Well, this is fucking happening. My dad suffered a major panic attack tonight, jumped out of bed and yanked his tubes out, so they had to restrain him

for his own safety. At which point they call me. And then they put him on the phone and he tells me he's been kidnapped and is being held hostage by a group of women that want to kill him.

My sister and I are here now, and he's calmed down a lot, but man that was scary. He thought they had kidnapped me too at first. And was talking about wanting to go back to Vietnam...and all sorts of crazy/scary stuff.

He's likely to stay confused for several days after anesthesia. - Trish Apr 23, 00:17
I think some of the meds can do that (hallucinations and what know) -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Apr 23, 00:04
