The results are dismal!! Here, judicial procedures to have someone called inept and be taken charged of is a long process, but schizophrenia is no laughing matter. If they can't be trusted to stick to their meds, which they usually aren't... the risks to themselves and others are too big to ignore. We've had too many cases here proving that point. I hope things go better for him, and soon!!<br />Good luck!!<br /><br />I admire your persistence in these matters though. Good for you!! <br />:)~ <br />HUGZBruno Lalibertéhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09607511642101907283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834267977604421778.post-91216010539718962812012-09-15T06:59:26.025-07:002012-09-15T06:59:26.025-07:00I echo Lisa's comment.
