It's worth a lot to her if she is still using it :) I honestly hope
you guys are right.

However, I am looking at the statistics for misdiagnosis of this
condition (as much as 50%) and I still have definite reservations.
Especially since they put a DNR in Aunt Toni's chart -- while she is
87 she definitely has all of her marbles and it scares the hell out of
me that "dehydrated" could be confused with "no longer has a useful
life" but apparently it was. She was just fine when I talked to her at
the hospital and I'm just glad she had a friend smart enough to get
her there.
