Reason for reading: fan of the author and grabbed it out of a TBR box
Blurb (nothing specified on book): A mother is facing the difficulties of having a bipolar daughter and fighting the system.
Opinion: Since I've been working with mentally ill children since I was about 17, I have seen the many ups and downs that parents have to go through in order to get help for their children. This book hits on several of them. Some, I think are taken to the extreme to prove a point. I hope that some politicians and hospital head honchos take a look at this book and see where they can make it easier to get help for families like this.
