carol stood in the quiet office , wondering what was going to happen to carl before he could see a doctor.psychotic episodes rarely healed themselves , and more than likely , he would continue to de-compensate.she doubted that his two sweet and unassuming parents would be equipped to deal with the escalation of his symptoms.shutting off the light , she headed outside.as usual , carols day ended as it had begun.so much had been needed , with no solution available.nothing had changed .
