The really moving part in so many of these cases is the fact that several of them were given the chance to leave the institution but refused because even those that had family were now "institutionalized" by their own minds. Some were never even on meds while in the place: truly mistakenly placed yet left to languish with a life unfulfilled. My heart aches for them all.
I listened to most of the tapes. I would like to write a book as a tribute to them..
