Mental illness

My niece Kaylee has Bipolar disorder and a few years ago she attempted suicide. It was scary because she was in Alaska and I couldn't be there to support her and my sister. She is an extremely smart girl with tons of potential but has a hard time holding down the simplest jobs because of frequent hospitalizations. What I've learned from Kaylee is that bipolar consumes every aspect of her life. Some days she's the happiest girl in the world and other days she is hopeless and feels that life isn't worth living. I love my niece very much and am happy that she will be moving back to the lower 48 so she can be closer to her family.
