The following review concludes the authors experience of a 6 year consultation with the parents of a 28 year old daughter with a schizophrenic psychosis. The self-sacrificing experiences of the parents are reported as well as the experiences with a well developed system of psychiatric care with several professionals, whose work remains without success because of insufficient coordination.
