When the Close sisters were very young their parents joined a cult called the MR a or Moral Rearmament. The family was suddenly uprooted to a cult school in Switzerland and ultimately to the Belgian Congo where their father became a surgeon in the war ravaged republic and ultimately the personal physician to President Mobutu. Shortly after the girls returned to the US for boarding school Jessie first started to exhibit symptoms of severe bipolar disorder (she would later learn that this ran in the family a well - kept secret). Jessie embarked on a series of destructive marriages as the condition worsened. Glenn was always by her side throughout. Jessie's mental illness was passed on to her son Calen. It wasn't until Calen entered Mc Lean's psychiatric hospital that Jessie herself was diagnosed. Fifteen years and twelve years of sobriety later Jessie is a stable and productive member of society. Glenn continues to be the major support in Jessie's life. In Resilience the sisters share their story of triumphing over Jessie's illness. The book is written in Jessie's voice with running commentary and an epilogue written by Glenn.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Resilience Two Sisters And A Story Of Mental Illness\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Earley Pete\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Little Brown \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9781455548828\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 288 Pages\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 1\/13\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Biography: General","brand":"Earley Pete","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49617143759153,"sku":"IN-G-9781455548828","price":41.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9781455548828.jpg?v=1724633485","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9781455548828-resilience-two-sisters-and-a-story-of-mental-illness","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
