The medical cost care for anyone seeking any kind of treament is totally outragous. I pray that anyone needing the help of medical care for mental disorders will not be turned away in getting treatment, sad to say so many are every day, most likely many as I am typing this. This woman is one that needs help, and I pray that she gets the proper treatment and help, there are those who's condition is so severe and need to be in a controlled facility.
This is very true. As a person that suffers from mental illness, I know this first hand. I am bound by insurance and there is only one doc in my area that will take my insurance and all the docs I've been to have been bad... one called me crazy, one tried to kill me with meds, one didn't give me enough meds, one didn't want to deal with me and sent me to the hospital and I can't get into the community mental health center for 4 months. I have no doctor and I have no meds. It's the sad truth.

A lot of you do not understand about what a mental disorder does to a person. It makes you do things totally out of your character. Who knows what she was thinking, but obviously it wasn't good. Bobo looks like he was well taken care of and I'm sure he has been loved. These pyschotic episodes come with no warning.
