My dad had suspected UTI over Christmas he was given antibiotics and seemed to improve he was also Covid positive. He never had a cough or breathing problems and after his antibiotics he seemed fine. A week later he started peeing more and started acting strangely within hours I had to call an ambulance as he was acting like he had full blown dementia paramedics took him in and I was told he had Urosepsis he was taken to intensive care for a couple of nights then on to a ward. A few days later they said they had ruled urine out so said it must have been something to do with Covid. They told me my dad was very confused and was t sleeping we are now on week 5 of him being in hospital they have tried so many medications to make him sleep for two nights he did sleep but now again the most he has is 2 hrs he walks up and down the ward confused taking things from other patients I have been to see him and he knows my name and I’m his daughter but mostly what he says doesn’t make sense or he will accuse me of taking his money or stealing his car. I can’t believe 5 weeks ago my dad was totally 💯 was driving a car and if it wasn’t for covid would be flying off to Greece for a break with my mum and now due to delirium he’s a different confused , agitated and sometime aggressive man
