Hello.
From your given information, diffuse cerebral atrophy is not a serious thing. It's quite common in this age.
Regarding low sodium count, it should be corrected by the physician along with management of chest infection in a icu setup as he is already admitted.
' Crack in xray' is not enough to diagnose which bone involved.
If he is unable to move his limb that may be due to electrolyte imbalance or may have a brain injury (CVA) which is to be diagnosed from CT scan or MRI imaging.
Be patient. Have faith in your treating doctor. Don't run here and there.
Health Tips
