for my brother. He is struggling with severe bipolar depression and has been recently selected as a candidate for a new therapy called VNS. It just kills me to see him so unhappy and unable to do anything about it so far. His condition has been unresponsive to medications and they have produced more than a few unpleasant side effects as well.

on the up side, we may be getting closer to moving out west as i was offered a job in NM today. I really want to be closer to my brother to help him through this very trying time.

Good luck to you both and wishes of health to your brother.

Prayers and thoughts sent from central NC to your brother...and for you and your husband in planning for the transition to NM.

The prayers and thoughts aRe comng your brothers and your way Alice. Please keep us posted on both.

Alice, my prayers will definitely go out for your brother. I certainly hope that the new treatment will work for him. I have gone thru a severe depression and understand just a tiny bit what your brother goes thru. Bi-polar is so very difficult to control. I know how much it meant to have my brother around when I was going thru my depression. I know you must feel so very helpless being so far away from him. It will help you both if you get out west. You must be sooooo very excited to move to where you love it the most. ((HUGS)) my friend.

My prayers are going out for your brother that the new meds will help him. Also prayers for you and your hubby as you transition out to NM.

You got it, prayers on the way! Bi-polar is a horrible thing and I HOPE and PRAY that the new meds will kick in!

Prayers for wholeness and courage are going out for your brother, as well as affirmations for your prosperity, Alice.

Best of luck and lots of prayers to the BOTH of you! I'm keeping everything crossed!
