When Delaney Ruston was little, she didn't like visiting her dad. He was schizophrenic, and his behavior was always unpredictable. Delaney is a doctor and filmmaker in Seattle. She's made a movie called "Unlisted: A Story of Schizophrenia." It chronicles Delaney's reunion with her dad. She tells KUOW's Jeannie Yandel what it was like to let her dad back into her life.
