商品簡介
With insight and intimacy, Kate L. McLaughlin candidly shares the realitites of parenting children with Bipolar Disorder. No ther book so eloquently and honestly conveys the physical realitites and battered emotions of a family caught in the swirling storm of a child's halucinations and psychosis. Nothing else accurately depicts the frenzy of mania, or suicide attempts and their bittersweet aftermaths. No other writer so aptly illustrates the personal changes in parents of disabled children, nor connects them to the emotional and spiritual growth borne of their occurence.
