Re: Bad day with Nada

[Guest guest]

Hi Willow,

What a really frightening night. Is your nada taking any kind of

medication? I would think that in addition to the BPD, there are

other issues here for which she needs treatment - immediately. I

have no experience with dealing with someone who acts like this.

I am worried about you since you also said that you were concerned

that your nada might get physical with you. Have you looked to any

kind of social services to get help for her? Remember, you are not

responsible for her, even though you did take care of her for so many

years. Those were years when she was supposed to be taking care of

you!
