BethLauren, I am praying for you and for your son. You know that even though it may feel hopeless that it is not hopeless because God can do all things. I pray that he heals your son from his mental illness. You are such a good mom, never giving up on him and persevering in asking for prayer for him. That is good that you are standing in the gap for him with God.
BethLauren, I am praying for you
