Wow, what an emotionally revealing story about love, strength and commitment in the throws of mental illness. I have experienced something like this myself with our child who suffered a psychotic episode, made worse by medications. Reading this book was like being honest with my feelings as a caregiver having gone through a similar experience, but having someone else speak my feelings and put them into words. Mark captures so much of the truth in heart and mind, with his retelling of his experience supporting his wife, Giulia, through her psychosis and life outside of these episodes. This is is such a wonderfully written story that captures your own heart and mind, and takes you to a new place of awareness.
