Eating Disorder Recovery for Emily

Donation protected

My daughter Emily  is 24 yrs old. Her Eating Disorder (anorexia) started at the age of 13.
During her teen years she was able to obtain treatment at the RVH hospital through a government funded program where she had specialized help with a dietitian, therapist and a nurse practitioner.  After the age of 18 there is little to no government funded treatment programs in Ontario Canada. Because of this, Emily has spent the last 5 years without specialized treatment, which is very costly.
Suffering 12 years with this illness has lead to her heart, bones and many vital organs to become weak and damaged. Emily is at a point in her life where she is strongly desiring recovery, both mentally and physically. She is wanting her future to be possible.

 This amount of money will provide her with a specialized dietitian and counselling for at least 1 year.
This mental illness has the highest mortality rate of all mental illnesses with heart failure being the cause.
Thank you in advance for your caring donation. Any donation $10 and up will receive a complementary art print 8”x8” of my original painting "Cottage Reflections". Be sure to send me your mailing address.
