I hope you are joking. If not, if this is real, you need to take it seriously. My husband, who didn't drink, died six months ago from fatty liver cirrhosis. The first sign was 14 months earlier when one of his liver numbers was too high. The doctor ordered a cat scan, which picked up cirrhosis. During the last four months of his life, because of ammonia build-up in his brain, he was delusional. Mostly part of the time, but at the very end close to all of the time.
