Has he been hospitalized? I can tell you that traumatic health events, especially those that include a change in settings (such as a hospital) do seem to trigger advances in the dementia. Sometimes as the person recovers from the health event (seizures) he returns to his former baseline or close to it; sometimes the decline is permanent.

I wish you both the best.

But he is trouble in walking, he is weak too, not able to walk without help now since 5 days though he can walk if he wants as he has no physican problem doc said. will this condition improve? Or he will never walk as before ? i am too scared.

Weakness after not using muscles for several days is common. Often physical therapy is ordered to help build strength back up. Ask the doctor is a physical therapist could be sent out to the house for a while.

RGargi, I looked up seizures and Alzheimer's and all I could find was that it can happen. I did not see any information about whether or not it can make the disease any worse. I imagine if it did make Alzheimer's worse there would be more information about that so maybe not finding anything about it is a good thing. I wish I could help you more. I can hear the pain in your post and it touched my heart. Prayers for you and your Dad and hugs too.

I would visit his doctor and discuss his medication and situation, is it at all possible that he has drug induced cognitive decline. Unclear to me if he had seizures first and then was diagnosed with disease.
