that's life

My Mum finished her radiation therapy at the end of November. It will take a few more weeks for the doctors to establish whether or how much the therapy improved her condition. For now, the pain has gone, which of course is a great improvement already.

Something - whether the radiation or other drugs she was on - caused her to have hallucinations though. And those became ever more vivid over the course of a week or so, and have now pretty much stopped again.

This is not something I've ever been confronted with. And I have to admit that it was strange to hear that there are people in the room with you while sitting on the sofa and watching TV. What the cause of her specific hallucinations are, remains unknown though.
