Oh! I did see something wonderful yesterday. SIL's mother came and was talking and had been out delivering baked goods to people. Why wonderful? Well she has been severely depressed most of the last 10 years with the last 2 being almost catatonic. She would come to my mother's and just sit and never say a word, or cry uncontrollably! She finally checked herself into a treatment facility but was still depressed but not as bad. SIL told them about her mother saying she could never shut her brain off and couldn't stop the bad thoughts. SIL wanted them to try Adderall along with her depression meds. It worked! I haven't seen this woman happy in years but she was out visiting the shut ins this year!

So not only is this wonderful for her but it gives me hope that maybe H will someday be happy again, even if it's not here with me. Maybe D will get her dad back so that they don't spend the weekend barely speaking but enjoying each other.
