        Chau,

        My father finished his yervoy treatments in December.  We just put him in the hospital.  He is almost non-responsive, delirious, and very confused.  Babbles and doesn't seem to be able to track us or know who we are.  All his scans, vitals are normal.  This is the 1st response that I have seen that is similar to him.  Bristol Meyers(drug company) did tell us that there have been reports of mind alterations but it was not in the literature.  Can you give me any more info on your father.  How long did it last, what did they treat him with. 

        Thank you,

        Lisa
