My grandmother is hallucinating things and it is tough to explain her, what she is seeing is not the reality. For example, yesterday night she kept on saying that she is being forced to sleep in a cow she'd, reality being, she was in her own room.

Hello, Hallucinations of recent origin in age of 85 is a red flag sign. A possibility of delirium or dementia needs to be ruled out as a priority. Delirium is a medical condition with high rates of mortality, hence please visit a neurologist or a medicine emergency at the earliest as an priority... Treat this as an emergency... Hope this helps you.
