I really feel for you, marlsy. Although I'm not a Mom either, I can understand your concern because depression runs in my family as well. It might not be a bad idea to bring her to the doctor although from my experience, the person feeling depressed usually says that they're fine. It can be really hard for a person to admit they need help.

I can understand you're being concened for her. Please pm me if you want to at any time. I'll keep you and the rest of your family in my prayers.
