[QUOTE="Bunny, post: 569492"] I think that what she did was courageous. She brought an issue to the fore front and people are now talking about how to help the mentally ill population of this country. Do I actually think that anything will get done? No, because the insurance companies seem to run the show when it comes to health care, bit it physical or mental, and they don't want to have to foot the bill for long stays in residential treatment facilities and expensive medications that will help one child, but will make another psychotic. I had a few friends send me a link to ther blog post as a way of saying that I am not alone (which I knew because I am a member here, but it's always nice to be reassured by others). People who have never had to care for a mentall ill person, be it child or adult, will never, NEVER understand what we go through on a daily basis. This mom simply tried to make people understand.
