Hello @teresamom and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. First, let me start by telling you that I can feel the immense gratitude and joy in your writing for your daughter having survived what must have been a very scary time for her, you, and everyone involved.

I wanted to share a few links to resources that may be helpful should you want to pursue coming to Mayo Clinic for her care, as you mentioned. First, here is some information on Bipolar Disorder care.

- Bipolar disorder care at Mayo Clinic:
https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/bipolar-disorder/care-at-mayo-clinic/mac-20355966
Next, there are quite a few members who share tips and information in this other group on Connect called Visiting Mayo Clinic.

- Visiting Mayo Clinic (Group):
https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/traveling-to-mayo-clinic/
There are some more specific discussions that may be helpful depending on what you are looking for right in the Visiting Mayo Clinic Group.

Back to your daughter... do they have any idea how long she will be there until she can be discharged? Also, how are you doing?

Hi Amanda, thank you for your reply and info, I will go to those links and find out more for sure. Our story is a long one and likely part of the reasons that worsen my daughter's depression. She is still in Hospital, not sure when she will be discharged, right now it's on up to another 14 days of stay. Both my husband and I have been trying everything we can to control the damages to her life and upgraded her insurance coverage. Husband had a mild case of MS, I am keeping an eye on him too. I am holding up OK I hope.
