Fran Houston and Marty Baker are best friends even though they live 3000 miles apart. They recently published a book about their friendship and Fran’s struggle with bipolar disorder. It’s called High Tide, Low Tide: A Caring Friend’s Guide to Bipolar Disorder.
I talked with Fran and Marty about how they became friends, how their friendship remains strong and how they hope their book will help other people. Listen to our conversation in this Catching Health podcast. (And please share the link.)
You can read more about Fran and Marty and their friendship in a previous blog post: How to be a friend — a best friend — to someone with bipolar disorder.
