Update - October 20

On Sunday, Dad was having some pains in his shoulder and upper arm. We were concerned about his heart, but that pain subsided by afternoon. Monday morning he wasn't up when I got up at 5:30 which is really unusual. I went over to check about 6:30, and he was in bed with the flu. He was groggy and slept all day. Kay stayed with him all day, and I slept over there that night. Yesterday he was a little better and was able to drink some liquids. At 3:00 this morning I looked over to see if he was awake. His kitchen light was on, and I noticed that his outside light was on too. So I looked out front and he was trying to unlock Kay's car in the dark. When I went out to check on him, he was very confused and told me he had been out there for hours trying to get the car open. He thought that was his car and didn't know why his key didn't work. His thought was that he needed to go let Mom know that he was okay. On the way back into the house he told me that he thought there might be a broken window. He must have thought about breaking a window so he could get in. Nothing seemed familiar to him back in the house except one of his little lamps in the living room. When I showed him his bedroom, he decided he was really tired and would go to sleep. I brought his keys over here although he had no memory that the car in the garage is his. I'm going to try to convince him to let me bring his keys over here at night just to be on the safe side.
