Hi guys. First post. So my father is 6 years with Parkinson’s. He’s 78.
Per doc he’s in stage 4 of 7.
Last night he started having hallucinations.
Just found out he’s had a series of mini strokes.
He is dropping weight.
Is “the end” soon?
I pray that he is taken soon. 😢
Hello Fire362, I am sorry to read about what is happening your with your father. I urge you to contact his dr immediately & discuss this. Call today, there could be something else going on not related to the disease. His specialist is your best source to ask all questions.
Take care.

Fire362, welcome to HealingWell!
I think your best bet is to talk to the medical staff. I didn't see any specific Parkinson's issues other than the hallucinations. That is a common concern with people with Parkinson's. It's usually medication-related. Has he had any changes in his PD meds - Amantadine, in particular? Otherwise I don't see any PD concerns.
Again, I suggest you talk to the medical staff and ask them about expectations.
