thanks to the coolmomscare for the highlight of this week's awareness designation. gives me something to get up to date on.
i don't know about you, but this is all too prevalent in my life. from college until now. two of my youth girls have gone into the hospital for their eating disorder last fall ('06). one entered an intensive treatment facility because of it... and those are just the cases that are more public that i can elude to. but it isn't just a young girls thing. if anyone has seen "thin" (which i highly recommend) would know.
in this video you can see polly's struggles. as with anyone, this disorder is a constant struggle. it got the best of her and she recently committed suicide.
