Janet Robbins is determined to take her medication for bipolar affective disorder but her mother, Helen Kendrick is rebellious and refuses to cooperate with her doctors or take her beneficial medication.

Must Read. FABULOUS!!!By Shnasy on February 21, 2014Verified PurchaseThis book is the most fabulous and the author hit the nail on the head about "There hasn't been a readable book out on mental illness since One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest ... So many people are ashamed of being diagnosed as bipolar...."

It was an eye opener in a book that was unable to be set down. It is worth the read and price. I just cant rave enough of about how wonderfully written this book is. Keeps you interested and entertaining. You get the wonderful feeling of the book in hand and a true understanding of the manageable bipolar disorder.

My wife really enjoyed this bookBy idrivean18 on July 3, 2014Verified PurchaseI bought this as a gift for my wife and she really enjoyed the book and it was extra special to her because she knows the author. I picked a good gift for her and she is looking forward to another book from Laura.

This is a wonderful book - very easy to read and enlighteningBy Amber Lundy on October 9, 2014Verified PurchaseThis is a wonderful book - very easy to read and enlightening. I don't think we always realize what people endure until we hear about their experiences. The Blueberry Patch provides a clear look into Bipolar Disorder and the effects it has on family and friends. Great read!
