Thank you for the likes, follows and support! I read the comments to David and he enjoys hearing from you!
(There's more below if you want to learn more about us)
David was diagnosed with Disorganized Schizophrenia in his 20's and had been in our moms care his entire life. When mom passed away in Sept 2021 I chose step in and make sure he would not be displaced; put in a home or end up homeless... we've been managing and doing pretty good to make sure that he is okay and has what he needs.
I started recording David to share with family some of the things I was dealing with, and somewhere in the process David gained a few admirers. I created this page with hashtags of #mentalillnessawareness and #schizoprenia because that is what is real for us.
People have asked how they can help support David - we would LOVE for you to purchase a copy of his book which is COMING SOON!

More about us... I've often wondered if it's possible that Schizophrenia is a protective measure and that maybe it was just safer for David to be in his own world rather than to deal with pain of our reality. We grew up with domestic violence as a way of life, being in a loving, nurturing and supportive environment was not our experience at all… We lived in motel after motel, and after every beating and call to the police, our mom swore she would not go back. Of course the “I’m sorry’s” and “I’ll be better” conversations always won.
We spent twelve years in that cycle of physical and emotional abuse- David stayed with our mom for his entire life until her passing in 2021. David starting working on his book several years ago, it is a collection of very interesting stories and memories.
