The Center Has to Hold

Ok, first blog of the new year...
2012 starts with a trip to the Hyatt, yes! Apparently my mom is on vacation from her apartment, of course why not stay at the most expensive hotel in the area?  I wish I could do that, and then let my family clean up the credit card mess afterwards, room service please! 

The Center Has to Hold is the name of this blog because having a family member with mental illness is just that. You have to hold it together, you have to clean up messes, and when credit cards are maxed out, you have to foot the bill -- even after death, I am told. No credit card company requires that you pass a mental examination in order to obtain a credit card... and this is where we are now. Racking up a bill at the Hyatt hotel with no ramifications or consequences; not sick enough to be hospitalized, but also not well enough to know that there is not a plot in the neighborhood to poison your food. 

I think we could use a little help here please.
