She is delusional.
She keeps asking if she is sitting up or lying down.
She wonders why people are trying to wake her up in the middle of the night.
She keeps thinking she has soiled her clothes. She can't remember her loo visit that she struggled to walk to, half hour back.
She is 83.
He takes care of her.
He spends sleepless nights sitting next to her.
He keeps talking to her, while she drifts between consciousness and sleep.
He feeds her, he gives her medicines.
He is fiercely protective about her.
He barely gets out of that room, and even when he is sitting in the hall,
He hears her call and runs to the room. It turns out that he imagined it.
He is hanging on to her for dear life.
He is 91.
They have been married for over 65 years.
