Does sudden hallucinations and having dual conversations with my dementia mother mean that her life is coming to an end?

It could mean she has a UTI. Hallucinations are a common symptom. You could do an AZO test at home for starters, but a culture done at the Dr or urgent care will give you a definite answer.

Hallucination are not unusual. If they scare her there are meds. If not then just go along with it. Dual conversations too r normal.
