[quote=Anonymous]Our family just did this last year. My DD was diagnosed with anorexia and it turned our entire family's life upside down. For about 6 months all of our energy went into refeeding our dd and taking her to 5 hours of therapy a day. We had to pull her out of school and try to make it all up virtually in the afternoon and evenings. Less of our energy went to our DS - he understood and was patient with us and his sister. It was hard - I think I cried privately every day. But there is nothing I would have done differently...she is recovered now....I still worry daily that she will relapse...but I knew the importance of early intervention for ED and was determined not to let this disease destroy my dd. For now it has not....but I do know the risk of relapse so I worry...all the time. We are now back to a more balanced lifestyle and give both children equal attention. But I wouldn't change anything we did. [/quote]
