Finding Dad, Paranoid Schizophrenia

Living on the streets with untreated severe mental illness that developed at the age of fifty-three, Joseph was all but forgotten by the world. His daughter, Amanda, had searched for years and still hoped to find him--she'd even registered her father in the National Database of Missing Persons. Her sister, brother, and stepmother had all given up or moved on.



Ten years have passed when a call from the Missing Persons division alerts Amanda that her dad is alive, though his location is unknown. Is he back in Chicago or in one of the thirty countries he'd roamed as a self-proclaimed Prophet of God?



Amanda's mission is clear: find him. Her motivation: unconditional love. She navigates a maze of medical bureaucracy and a tangle of relationships to discover that what she's been searching for is not all that she has found.



Finding Dad, Paranoid Schizophrenia: An End to the Search is the long-awaited sequel to Losing Dad, Paranoid Schizophrenia: A Family's Search for Hope. Book club discussion questions included.
