Hi, my name is, I'm a RN and am submitting this report about my grandpa. I took him into the VA to get his second covid vaccine on 2/17/21. At that time my grandp lived semi-independently in a house between my parents and my uncle . He didn't get out very much but with some help of grocery shopping and organizing his medication he was still able to live alone and function well independently. My mother reported to me on 2/18/21 that my grandpa was confused, weak and tired. My grandpa has never had any signs of dementia. At this time he developed a delerium that waxed and waned. He complained of headache, no appetite and extreme weakness. On 2/23/21 he fell down in his house and we decided to move him into my uncles spare bedroom to keep better eyes on him. The delerium persisted and on 3/5 he was taken to Hospital for a workup for his delerium and weakness. There he saw Dr. an internal medicine doctor at hospital. The workup showed an elevated BNP (probably baseline but I'd have to look at previous lab results) but nothing further. We opted not to do further imaging and instead take him home. It became obvious to me that this was the end of his life and so I requested a hospice referral from Dr. My grandpa died on 3/24/21.
