58. They've almost killed my husband on several occasions.
Before I learned to stop being shy and how to get into their faces. Doug's condition makes him very pragmatic, so he does literally what the doctor orders.

The worst time was when I was working in L.A. and Doug was still up in SanFran. My friends flew him down to me because he was having psychotic episodes. When I picked him up, his jaw was clamping shut from one of the meds. And his blood sugar was 680.

Since I got real doctors for him, he's been fine. But, all those people in the public mental health system are at very, very serious risk and so are their families, their neighbors, their schools. :(
