Ragucci, Grace – “hallucinations”

Conversation with Terry C and Mary R (recorded by Joe Ragucci):

Aunt Mary began talking about the hallucinations that Grandma had for many years.  She blames it on the cortisone she received to relieve pain.  Grandma had Parkinson disease and cortisone and Parkinson don’t mix well.  Grandma would imagine that I was crying downstairs because Marge wasn’t feeding me.  I remember her yelling out the window about imaginary things.  Marge was the focus of her imaginations because Grandma felt that Marge took Joseph away from her. The doctors tried medications but there was no solution.
