My Mother is Bi-Polar and we have been coping with this for well.. ever. She got worse after menopause. She is 60. Anyhow, my Father is suffering from Liver Failure and my Mom is having a hard time dealing with this. Like any person would. Tuesday night she tried to kill herself. She is currently at a mental hospital on a legal hold. Have any of you ever called and taken your family in from a suicide attempt? Did they get mad at you for it? She is so angry.
