3 November 2018
Warning: Spoilers
A very sad true story. A mentally ill women is found dead in an abandoned house in NH. A journal she kept covers the last months of her life. Her background and family are presented. Her spiral down into the mental health system, court hearing, and homelessness is covered. The main bad decision at her guardianship hearing- making her responsible for her own medicating. With that ,the judge doomed her. Her family was left out of the loop and she was released to a homeless existence ending in death by starvation. The photography and narration, family and professional testimony are very well done. The subject of this story is very compelling and it shows what can happen in the American nightmare of our care system.
