Review of God Knows Where I Am (2016) by Bridget B — 04 Nov 2018

Stunningly accurate portrayal of the innocence of the person with mental illness be it bipolar, schizophrenia or both. It has been four years since my father was arrested with many counts of felony charges living a similar unknowing, destructive path; the late onset of this disease started at age 56 years old.

Thankfully, by the grace of God, the court required him to take medication. He has lived with myself and granddaughter for the last 7 years and even before that off and on for ten years. I pray that treatment continues to bless him with good control over this illness albeit imperfect yet striving to beat it.

The answer to this is love, hope and forgiveness. Never give up but I know it will hurt.
