I talked to her just now. She sounded better, a bit more uplifted by the thought of working the program with all she has, and wanting to feel better.
We are going to have to drive 2 hours to attend family meetings, and visit.
This is the first day in a week she did not cry when I talked to her.
But, I can't say the same for me. I just wait till I hang up.
How much heartache does God think one heart can handle?

This may be an answer to prayer. I am happy to hear of the family meetings, you can learn so much from them. Make sure you make a list of questions. Knowledge is Power.
I am praying for your family, BOL. I know, as a mother, this is heart wrenching. But we also know, as parents, the hardest thing might be the best thing. Love ya lady!

I have been dealing with Bi Polar for years. My husband has it, as well.
When it came to my daughter however, it was a whole new ball game. Adolecent Bi Polar is a nightmare I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.
We have been the University of St. Louis participating in studies.
I have created her a platofrm of support that is almost unbreakable. She sees a Doctor twice a month, a therapist once a month, and she has a specialist/Therapist in Adoolocent Bi Polar who actually comes to the house once a week.
Her days at school are as stress free as one can make them in a school her size. I have tried homeschooling, with a teacher form school coming to the house coming three times a week, and I working with her the rest of the time. As a teenager, she needs the interaction with other people, so that was a bust.
The bottom line now is, when you take a child with as many diagnosis issues as she has, and you mix them with a Mother, and family who thinks you can love, and work someone out of an illness, six years later you have a bunch of angry tired family members, and a broken hearted Mom.
Through our family therapy, I have been informed that I am working harder then both of them, and it is high time that some personal accountability comes into play. I have been told I am an enabler...
So, this is the game plan for now, and I pray for God's grace to take hold, and open both of their eyes to the fact that they have to do this for them selvess, for there may not be a me forever. Then, what would they do?
Thanks for all the prayers.
