Wonderful story about love and mental health

Wonderful, beautiful story about love, mental health and the state of health care & support: How I Fell in Love with a Schizophrenic

Really moving. Hope you like it as much as I do.

"I hope, when Sally comes out of the hospital in a week or two, she'll be a lot like the old Sally I met that fateful July day in 2011. And I hope we can laugh about aliens, and go back to fixing up the house, and maybe even shoot a round of pool or two now and then. We'll keep trying to find an antidepressant that works, and a work-at-home job that Sally can do to make extra money, so she can feel more independent. Fate willing, we'll build a life together."

Thank you for posting the link.

Reading that story brought tears to my eyes and made me realise that my own mental illness sometimes makes me too self absorbed and I must make more time for my loving partner who has been there for me through good and bad times and accepts me for who I am. A good way to start 2013.
