@stephaniebondy Hi, the mental health care system in Iowa is not the best. My daughter and I got better care in Seatttle and San Diego. We lived on the west coast for 20 years. Loved. San Diego, with the weather and ocean, but too many people. Great place to vacation. We only lived there for 5 years. Most of our time was in the Seattle area. I really miss Seattle. It is beautiful and it rains and is cloudy here just as much as there, besides there's the green evergreen trees. When its clear or partly clear there's Mt Rainier and t he Cascades. Just gorgeous. It hardly rains July through September and the temperatures don't get as cold as they do here. Well I got off the subject, but the mental health system is not as good here. I live in Urbandale and see a good psychiatrist here, most don't take medicare, even though we have an Aetna policy. But, I'm mostly stable. There's always something in life that throws us for a loop.
