Pamela, I hope that you and DB can convince your S-I-L to accept what she has been offered.
This is not about me but this is my story.
About 10 years ago I spent a month in a psychiatric hospital, taking the first steps towards dealing with my alcohol abuse and clinical depression. This was followed up with weekly group therapy for about 18 months. These were positive and life-changing experiences for me.
I have private medical insurance (long story related to the Australian tax system) so this cost me about $400 in total.
I think that your S-I-L is very fortunate to have what the NHS has offered her.
Feel free to use my story in talking with your S-I-L if you think that might help.
