Im sorry your going through such a rough time . She is lucky to have you .. You do need to take care of yourself but you know this.

I hope the Doctors find a treament plan that will allow her to begin speaking again and can benefit from therapy and safely return to you.

Good thoughts
You are grossly misinformed about the progression of the BP illness. Check it out for yourself on the internet, through your pdoc, or any behavioral health expert. The progression of the mental illness itself does not necessarily shorten the lifespan of the afflicted - it just makes their life tougher and tougher.

And tell us - what is "proper treatment?"
Thanks for this!
