I was my ex's caregiver for decades. Today she lives in a local homeless community and her wellbeing is often at risk.
Could she have had a different outcome through forced treatment? Yes and no.
The technical answer is No because the treatment she needs doesn't exist here (extended-term, inpatient, safe). There's nothing to commit her to.
If the treatment she needs existed, could I have committed her against her will? Probably not. It would require LEO assistance and (due to reality) husbands are generally considered to pose a heightened risk of gaslighting.
