The Scenic Route: A Way through Madness - Paperback

Rossa Forbes was enjoying her life in Switzerland--working for an international organization and traveling the world--when the unthinkable happened: her eldest son, Chris, a college student in Toronto, was admitted to a psychiatric facility for observation and treatment.
Diagnosed with schizophrenia, Chris returned home to Geneva, where he would spend the next two years in a day treatment program while various medications were prescribed to manage his symptoms.
Distressed by the possibility that Chris was facing a lifetime of treatment with prescription drugs, Rossa undertook a life-altering journey in search of holistic treatments. Together, mother and son explored sound healing, vibrational medicine, assemblage point shifts and other unconventional approaches to balancing mind, body, and spirit.
Chris's diagnosis serves as the catalyst for changes in his entire family in this memorable story of a mother's tireless efforts to see her son thrive.
