My sister was a 'teacher' in a day program for adults with cerebral palsy and other causes of brain damage. All of her clients were severely affected physically and had various states of mental capacity. She had one client who was in her late 30s and had been institutionalized at Stockton State Hospital since she was a pre-teen. A lifetime of anti-psychotic drugs had left her in a wheelchair with severe osteoporosis. A moderate nudge could break a bone. I don't know what her original diagnosis was but her biggest problem at this later stage was periodic seizures. These nearly always led to an ambulance ride to the hospital. My sister would always end up with nearly as many bruises as her client but without the broken bones. The job was draining and she finally burned out and moved on. She heard about a year later that the woman had passed on. A lot of medications and treatments had been used over the years in State Hospitals with inadequate testing. EdrieAnne
