My Daughter is suffering from a long term illness, mental. They have reached the limit that they can do with drugs, at this point.
They are proposing that she be institutionalized, long term care. She is a vibrant young lady, whom I love as life itself. I do not wish to see her as another drugged up drone in an institution.
I join in prayer for your daughter, for you and the family!
Prayers for your daughter. Prayers for you too, Little Bill and all your family. Take Care
Prayers for you and your family. Dealing with mental illness takes a special person. May God bless you abundantly.
Prayers to your daughter and your family.
Is there perhaps another medical facility that can evaluate her? Perhaps alternative treatment?

Sounds like legal help is needed here.
Dear Lord,
my prayers are with this family.
God to You alone the glory!!
More prayers coming your way. Mental illness in my family too -- it's very hard, but God is great.
Prayers for you and your daughter and family have been sent.
That it has been stressful is an understatement I'm sure.
Bless you and yours. You are not alone.
If you have no insurance, this is why you need to get in touch with a research program. They are often looking for cases to include in a study and the treatment is typically free. The problem though would be to find such a study close to where you live. Here is the link to show you the ongoing clinical trials, but contact them anyway to see if they can give you any other leads.

I hold an NIH grant in another area of medicine, and believe me that there are many people out there who want to help your daughter, but they just don't know yet that you need them. The more professional people who know of your search, the more likely you will find help.
God bless your family!
Bill, institutions aren't what they used to be. Some are very pleasant places where the residents are treated with dignity and respect. Check them out. Reject the ones you feel uncomfortable about.
Prayers for your family and your situation from our house. Keep the faith.
May God walk with you, your daughter, and your family as you go through these trials. May He give assistance in the best way to go, with medications and cures.
Please do contact this agency.
Rrayers to you and your family that you find the solution and help you need to get there.
Little Bill, Cast ALL your cares upon Him for He careth for you. Lift up your eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh your help? Your help cometh from the LORD, maker of heaven and earth. Have no anxiety about anything, but in ALL things, with prayer and thanksgiving, let your needs be made known unto God, and the peace of God which passeth all understanding shall keep your heart and mind through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Cobalt...a friend told me about vitamin E. I was having leg and hip problems and it was becoming constant. I decided to try it. It worked. I still have arthritis, but it's now much, much better. I take 2-200u of E. It's reasonable costwise and you'll feel a difference in one week. I hesitated because everytime I try one of the healthfood stores "miracle pills," they don't work and I'm out $8! This actually worked for me. Worth a shot. Try it.
