A very moving video and story about one mothers struggle with anorexia. Anorexia is on the rise with older woman and this video touches on why.
What an incredible story about a woman, that has anorexia and has been battling it for 20 years. She is married and has kids and had gotten down to 80 lbs. It's amazing what she goes through to try to get into remission from it. I really encourage you to watch the video attachment in the right corner.
