I'm sorry about the drama - my grandfather's health, or rather his mental faculties, crashed just before Christmas, and it can get so, so awful. Of course I don't know your aunt or the situation at all, but until February or so it seemed like I, who visited less than his daughter did, got lucid moments more often than she did. So it might just be that her condition fluctuates a lot.

Er. That wasn't the least bit comforting, was it? I hope you get the chance to rest up! Family drama can be incredinly draining.
