As most of you know my daughter suffered a bi polar episode last month. I believe that in all my experiences with diseases, having had cancer and watched relatives battle different diseases. Bi polar has got to be one of the hardest diseases a family has to go through.
It is so hard for the patient to understand that they are not ok. A brain disease must be very frightening or calming which ever the case maybe to have your brain telling you that you are fine while you are running around not sleeping, paranoid and just down right not ok. The oddest thing is that when most of these patients are sick they are usually having a religious experience involving God or the Devil or both.Another interesting thing my daughter told her is that all the patients that were having similar experiencs understood each other. Maybe because they were on the same brain wave length. There are so many things in this world that we still do not know or understand.
I am not the one to judge what Bi Polar is about, but you do worry for the safety of your child even adult children. You feel totally helpless and trying not to worry yourself sick.
Yes, I am grateful that my daughter is alive, healthy and blessing God that she came through it ok. I have seen worse cases than my daughter and better cases.
What schocked me and awed me the most was the fact that I had 3 clients God sent me this month and 2 of them had a sibling or child that was Bi-Polar. I don't think that God could send me a stronger message than that that Our Creator is alive and well and taking care of us.
What was even more amazing was that my clients were from 3rd world countries and I was afraid to tell my clients about my daughter because I thought they would not understand. When you have a bi polar relative you worry that peole might not take it well. It is not a death sentence and if you met my daughter any other time of year except during her 2 episodes in the last 2 years, you would never think she was bi-polar. She is smart, pretty, very intelligent and constantly keeping us up to date on the latest issues and safest organic foods. The original go green girl.
Anyway, I have found comfort in the messengers that God sent to help me through this hard time and like my clients and the Doctors told me , she is doing just fine. I am grateful to have her home safe and alive.

By the way, I almost forgot the most awesome thing that happened. I prayed for Michael the Archangel to protect my daughter and keep her safe. My daughter was scared in the hospital and wanted to go home. I also talked to her about praying for the angels to protect her. She told me last week that when she was in the hospital she spoke to a man named Michael that had incredible blue eyes and he told her he was here to protect her. Then I repeated my story to her of how I prayed for Michael to protect her. God is so amazing.
