My 29 yr old son was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia over 10 years ago. We believe it was brought on by the drowing of his father when he was only 16. He has heard voices, seen things, even his deceased father. He also has grandmal seizures.

He took himself off his medications a few years back and has been trying to lead a normal life. He has married and has a young son. My son has delusions of grandure. There are times when he feels like everyone is after him, but now it has settled thusly into his thinking he can do anythig.

He recieves a small check from the government due to his illness, but still tries to work for his family.

He borrowed some money from a local loan company and when they said sign, he did. Now they have ripped him off, charging him $1600 to borrow three. He said the place was busy so they didn't explain it to himl..he also says he checked the box that asked him if it was explained to him and he checked no.

He is having problems at work and can not make the payments..if it weren't for me they would be in dire straights. The company has threaatened to garnish his check,, which I know will through him into a serious condition.

Has anyone out there had an experience with a loved one who has schizophrenia and has borrowed money not realizing what he was doing? Can this company sue him if he was off his medications when all this was done?

Please help me.
