Thanks much for your support. She slept for much of the weekend and we've now built up her strength enough for her weekly trip to her psychiatrist, which is about 45 minutes away. You're nice to validate me for hanging in here, but I don't feel particularly noble. Mostly guilty for not being nurturing enough. I'm not much good at that.

As you say, hopefully the lithium will begin to work. Meanwhile, thanks again for your thoughts.
