Mark, I'm sorry to hear that. Some of the parents of the kids I work with have similar types of things, and from what I've seen, it's a brutal, ugly, and painful condition. Am sending what positive thoughts and prayers I can your family's way.
Seasoned, will keep a line open for a fellow serviceman.

Both of you and your families will be kept in my thoughts and prayers. :asian:
Thank you my friends.
Exile, her condition has been mostly stable for the past eighteen years, kept that way by the right mix of chemical 'rebalancers'.
What we think has happened is that the medication she has been taking for an onset of other physical conditions has messed up the equilibrium.
This is very hard on my dad who has not yet recovered from his own brush with the Reaper not so long ago and doesn't have the strength to carry this like he once did.
As a family, we have all confessed to each other that we never thought we'd be facing this horror again. I don't mean to diminish those who have experienced real, physical, bereavement but I think those who have encountered this will understand when I say it is like a death but a human who looks like the person you knew is still there in her place.

It is like this with my oldest. Once when he was diagnosed with autism, again when he was diagnosed as schizophrenic. It's very much like mourning the death of the person you thought you knew.
Mark, all my empathy.
I wholeheartedly believe in prayer as a means of healing. But I also, strongly believe in, the emotional healing that begins, when we humble ourselves, my asking for those prayers, from total strangers and getting a response, and out pouring as is shown in this thread. I speck from my heart, when I say I will pray for each and every one here, that has opened themselves up, to their hurt.

Prayers and good thoughts abounding towards you all.

Prayers, please, for John, back in the hospital for a meds review, Meg who physically felt his rage yesterday, and the families of all who are challenged with developmental disabilities and mental illness.
My thoughts and prayers to your family Geo, and to all families touched by this. *hugs*
My friend went into hospital yesterday. He's got the works: ultradian mood swings, psychosis, grand mal seizures. Happily his sense of humor is untouched, and I think this will carry him a long way.
In my own struggles with the disease he's my role model; I look to him as a source of strength. His humor, dignity, and wisdom are a model for anyone living with a major chronic illness. We stay in touch via text messaging as he feels able, and I give him what encouragement I can.
