    So sorry to hear about your brother's death, and that your other brother is ill.  My older sister died 2004 because she wouldn't quit drinking, but she didn't have mental illness.  On the other hand, I have sz and am often noncompliant with meds.  I try to rationalize my behavior but it is still self-destructive.  At least I have a steady disability income and health insurance and a nice house where I live with my 80-yr-old mother.  We keep an eye on each other.  But you couldn't make your brother's decisions for him, even though he couldn't make good decisions for himself.  Maybe you can dedicate one of your films to his memory.

    Thank you for the note.  The film mentioned is dedicated to him.  The unique take on the film is that is focuses more on the family and friends than it does the victim.  It helps shed light on the pain that those who love the inflicted go through.

     

    If I can encourage you stay on your meds.  Regardless of what you think or rationalize just make you meds a daily part of your life without question.  Do it for those around you who love and care for you.  Oh well, I hope this email finds you happy and healthy and I truly wish you well.
