The Farmer's Wifee here,
Well after going round with several police departments who were rather helpful, they finally reached a brother who said he could be of no help. I offered to bring her home as it might rain tonight, but she wouldn't come in fear of being dumped somewhere she doesn't want to be.
It's just a very sad situation. I don't know if she was schizophrenic or dementia or what but her mind was seriously compromised and the memories mixed up. She was set on one thing and one thing only; getting her kids and taking them home. her kids are now 24, 25 and 36 or something like that but I gather they were taken from her and she detained in an institution or something and when she got back, they were gone. Now she wanders in search of this idea of home.
I know many couldn't relate but it is just a sad sad thing.

I just wanted to confirm that there was a person or place to go to and getting her there would be doable, but that does not seem to be the case as it would take an incredible amount of love and energy to make sure she was taken care of. I have a friend since childhood who over saw her Mother's care though the mother was in an institution since I knew the friend at 6 years old. As an adult she had to check in on her even though it was often not pleasant at all and sometimes abusive as her Mother was very schizophrenic. Many times she'd show up and the medications were wrong or she was over drugged and many number of issues to deal with and that is with her being in a care facility much less anyone trying to care for them in their home and work and raise a family etc.

Yeah, I have a soft spot, but someone has to!

I also know of a girl who had several kids by the same guy, never married, and was pregnant when institutionalized and they c-sectioned the baby and took it away. Gave 3 of her kids to relatives who are extreme narcissists, slap them, call them names and make them feel horrible!

There has just got to be better answers than this!

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point ... [Read Article]
