Do not do this at home. Since 14 years old, Nikki Bower has led a life of extremes – from the highest of career levels of being a Director of Film School to being unemployed and broke at the age of 57. Read on, there is hope. She has also been married 2 ½ times.
From falling off chairs, to meeting cows, to facing the elephant in the room, this raw and unplugged Wild Memoir of Madness, Survival & Dark Humour is a tragic comedy of Nikki the Bipolar Bear’s life. From the age of 14 she was called a manic depressive because they didn’t have such cool labels like Bipolar. She has had her brain fried through Electric Convulsive Therapy 12 times, and who knows how much medication she has had to take over the last 40 years. And looking for work at age 57 after having been knocked off from her 6 years at a non-profit organisation, for disability after 4 major hip and leg operations in less than 6 months, she is starting to consider standing at the robots wit a sign that says `Mother of 4 (husband, 2 dogs and a cat), author and indescribably sexy, please help. I will use a top hat for the money and a Woolworths bag for 2nd hand food.
