Having very little insight into the lives of his grandparents and parents before his birth, Bruce Bowman has written an account of his life in an effort to share his experiences with his wife of forty-eight years, three children, and ten grandchildren.

Bipolar, Epileptic Papa and Businessman is that account. It begins with an overview of his family history. Born in 1948 along with his twin sister Bonnie, the two joined their other three sisters, Pat and Pam also twins, at three years old, and Julie the eldest at 6. Bruce decided at an early age he was all boy and was very independent of his four sisters. He sheds highlights on his youth and as he grows and becomes more independent. Things were quite different in the fifties and sixties and this book is interlaced with nostalgia during his life. Shortly after marriage, he was diagnosed with transient epileptic amnesia and later went through recurring bouts of bipolar depression. The depression was especially tough while running his business on Maui.

This book is amazing

I haven’t read many books because I am just not a book reader. I am bipolar and a friend referred this book to me. I encourage everyone to read this book so they can better understand what I have gone through and what Mr. Bowman has gone through. It is excellent.
