How many of 2.6%?

The number should be: 2.5% x 350 million = 9.1 million of USA population affected by bipolar disorder illness.

  2. En mi trabajo, una amiga que como yo, raspaba también versos, vino a saberlo un día, que entró airada a la biblioteca, y me increpó porque teníamos relaciones erógenas con una amiga suya. Me dijo que cómo la cambiaba a ella, por su amiga. Y alternadamente, se tomaba unas gotas. Dejó en el escritorio, unos papeles que traía al descuido, y leí un diagnóstico médico: bipolar. ES una enfermedad terrible. Duro por los cambios emocionales.
    UN abrazo. carlos
