People hallucinate. When they begin to believe their hallucinations they create delusional beliefs in the magical world that doesn't exist except, apparently, in their heads.
Standing up for truth and putting pure testimony about other worlds, that conflicts with reality, in it's proper place as fiction is important.
Absolutely. Otherwise we will operate in a Harry Potter type of the world.
The Book of Mormon is quite a piece of work, should you seek Restoration era fantasy.
I saw my mother experience hallucinations throughout her last month going thru the dying process.
She was sitting on the edge of her bed and wanted to know if their were sirens going off because she could see the reflections of their lights in the room...there were no lights.
Another time she had taken all her belongings out of her stand and wrapped them together in a towel and tied them to a rod she found somewhere, like a hobo would carry over their shoulder. We were all surprised to find her with this by her bedside as well the nursing staff. She said she was going on a trip. Never determined where she got the rod for this.
A nurse took me aside later as these happenings and others occured saying that in her opinion the medications they had her on were responsible. That Dr.s sometimes do not understand or realize the affects on dying patients though they are told of such.
So of course we requested her medication be decreased and possibly changed....both were done and these episodes ceased completely and she was actually better all around...further she suffered no discomfort for having these decreased. We were able then to enjoy her and she us those final weeks.
