You can't force her to go back to Vietnam if she doesn't want to go.

If you still love her then you should try to make sure she takes her medicine every day. A lot of mentally ill people are perfectly normal as long as they take their meds.

Your employer doesn't offer medical insurance?

I'm not forcing her go back to Vietnam forever, she got 10 years green card, she can come back to US anytime.

I'm unable to take care of her myself, so I need her parents take care of her, because they are not working like me.

for some reason my health insurance refused to add her in my insurance plan. Now I think the hospital will bill me more than $50,000

her sick is kind of funny, she refused to take medicine at home, so when the police come or in hospital then she agree to take medicine

I'm scared while I'm not home she may kill herself.

I'm trying to do the best thing for her

Is insurance from your employer or did you buy the policy on your own?

the emploer insurance said it is not in open enrollment period so they re fused to add her in plan.

but I dont care about insurance now, what I care is she is alone at home in sickness could lead her to die

I don't know your situation as intimately as you do but it seems like most of your troubles could potentially be maintained if you get her the proper medication and ensure yourself that she takes it. Without health insurance, you'll have to dig around to see if there are free or low cost solutions available to you. They are out there, you just have to find one that works for you. Here's some leads that might help.

You either need to find a friend for her that can spend the day with her or find a caregiver for her. Try to find her someone who also just came over from Vietnam. They can relate and they will also be cheaper.

First, get her back on her meds. Then work on Dai_Tx's plan to have someone care for her during the day.

You could hire a person to be at home with her, I know of some elderly people who hired someone to live with them and to help with cooking, cleaning, etc. I think it was 1000-1500 a month in the OC. This isn't a nurse or anything, more of a companion who can help with the house work. You could hire a nurse, but it would cost more.

So what help are you wanting or needing?

[confusedasheck 21]

There should be some kind of exception to cases like childbirth or getting married. However if she has been here 6 months, then you may have missed the exception period.

However, it's still worth checking into.
