    Confusion update from tovah - please help

    I want to thank everyone who replied to me yesterday. It helped me at least get to sleep. I went back to the hospital today and my husband actually seems worse. He didn't remember my name and when asked, said the wrong year and basically got no questions right. They said that he's pretty far...
