I have never really had the chance to breathe and think about what has gone right and what has gone wrong. In the moment, we pulled from every imaginable resource and expert and we did the best we could with the information we had at the time. Now with our family once again in crisis, I am hoping that we can all breathe and partner better with the experts to help us all come out better.

Eating disorders are complicated. It is not about being skinny, and it is not about not eating…for each person there are different triggers and coping processes. It is one of the most complicated illnesses from a medical, mental, and emotional health perspective. Now more after than 10 years of this disease being in our lives…I still am at a loss…and it feels even harder now on everyone.

Is there a do over? If I could retrace my steps would I do the same things again?
