Beskrivelse
"This book provided a lot of interesting information and insight into bipolar disorder and other mental illnesses. A Surgeon's Life with Bipolar Disorder is a book about hope; ideal for a wide range of a reading audience."
- Pacific Book Review
"This is an intelligently conceived remembrance that takes bold steps toward demystifying a mental illness. A lucid, educational portrait of mental illness."
- Kirkus Review
This book was written by Dr. John Emery in order to share with you his knowledge of bipolar disorder and how this disease affected his life before and after he was diagnosed as having bipolar disorder at age 39. It is simply an example of how one person tried to deal with this disease.
Both of Dr. Emery's parents were from Canada. Dr. Emery is very proud of his Canadian heritage. Many members of his mother's extended family are in the province of Ontario today.
To our sister and brothers with disability:
- We promise to try to meet you;
- We promise to try to understand you;
- We promise to try to help you.
One final thought is to not let someone's opinion of your disability stand in the way of your dreams or life goals. They are not the one living inside you.
