Schizophrenia does not just affect the person with schizophrenia, but their families, also. We explore the family relationships impacted by schizophrenia, both immediate and extended. Two guests join us, Chrisa Hickey, mother of an adult son with schizophrenia and started an online site for parents of children who have a severe mental illness. The other guest is Janel Star Withers, mother of host Rachel Star Withers. Janel shares her experiences with raising a schizophrenic daughter.
