He was not aware of the 911 call and says his dad has dementia and must have gotten scared and called just before he got there. He says his mom is a diabetic and this is a pretty common occurrence, but he's not sure how it happened this time.  The son said her blood sugar was 400, and he was just about to administer her normal dose of insulin.
