Click hereI already have the outline of my next story and I will be working on it soon after taking a week break from this one (it's been pretty heady stuff). Taking what I've learned from this one, I will post in larger blocks and hopefully lesser chapters – trying to write enough of a buffer ahead that I'm not feeling any sort of deadline pressure.
Be well and thanks again.

Well written. And a really sad story. Mental illness is so hard on family memebers.
Well written and unique. I actually read it straight throuh. I like happy endings even though this one didn't have that. It reminds me of a friend and neighbor whose wife had Alzheimers disease. Never a happy ending there.
Bipolar sucks. It just is really bad. It may get worse with time and lack of treatment, but no definitive cure, and signs of this should have happened earlier in her life. It doesn't just "turn on".
To the Anonymous commenter from a month ago who was ripping the MC for being a man-child and thought reconciliation was warranted: have you ever lived or known someone with bad bipolar disorder? It is a serious and sad and painful matter that often ends up destroying any and all relationships over time. Admittedly his ex wife had a bad version of the disease. That bring said mental disease is easier to forgive than say a multimonth affair, but reconciliation with hisnex wife means putting his daughter and himself in danger and bringing her back into his house and life. That seems far fetched. On thr meds she is a zombie. But she won't always stay on the meds. They never do...
Anonymous commenter from six months ago with post starting with "Sad tale..." had a very poignant analysis and review of this excellent but sad story. So no need to do anything else her but give it 5 stars.
