So another book where the caregiver delves into the woe is me while not trying to understand her career. Tanya, like any caregiver in a broken system, wants to help her son but this memoir looks how she gets all antsy trying to deal with her sun across continents and countries. I didn't like this book and I come at the angle of the one needing help in the broken system. You (Tanya) might be at the wit's end but your son (smi individual) is doing much worse.

The book for being a memoir on a mother through SZ in her son lacks understanding of his world. We get ideas of what some delusions and hallucinations might be but if I didn't know SZ already I would have just thought yeah screw the meds all it causes is side effects and they don't work. Or are meds working if he is sedated so much? Or just the basics, what is schizophrenia? voices, sleeping all the time, what? And comparing him to animals of his state I was not so keen on
