Surprisingly my father is back to normal again. Around two weeks of painfully enduring him and his irrational behavior (purposely gagging himself, staying in bed for days literally etc; not eating enough) and now he's back to normal. He's doing his paperworks again for a post-retirement job which he chose to do himself to keep him occupied.
I admit I'm having a hard time warming up to him now, since that day I secretly saw him choke himself up and later tell us that he was having vomiting cycles. It was hard, because I used to argue in his defense with the rest of the family before, concerning their cold attitude towards him whenever he gets 'sick'.
Well we don't have the financial resources for a psychiatric opinion on what's going inside my father's mind right now so I guess for the mean time I have to do my own digging on the net and hopefully I'll understand him more. I want to know how and what triggers my father's dementia/senile episodes and what we can help to avoid such.
