I'm sorry to hear of your relative's illnesses.

But this raises an interesting question, which I hope very much
 is hypothetical in your case.If this seems in bad taste to you, then I
apologize in advance.

Brain tumours and other degenerative diseases can cause vast personality
changes in a person. If somebody, a solid Christian, gets a disease
which destroys his personality, so that he ends up cursing God, losing
his faith and blaspheming against the Holy Spirit, will he go to Hell?
