She has been through so much, all my aunts and uncles on her side had the illness and have passed away in recent years A few weeks ago, she just started to say thimgs of impossibility- the only way i can explain my thoughts at the time were- she had finally gone insane. She is now in hospital under a mental health act and thinks everyone has died and the world was never built. She also has no idea of who i am, i have cared for her the last 6 years. She is getting the best treatment and care at the moment anyone can give her, it is hard for some people to let go- i went through all the shock and emotions last month and i have now accepted she wont be the same again Comments
