I say parents because she wants me to narrow it down, I am very aware that there are sisters, wives, brothers, friends, etc who are seriously impacted by the nightmare of loving someone with an eating disorder.
I would love to hear what else describes this person and what other needs a parent of a child with an eating disorder might have. Please comment or send me an email.
Here is what I came up with:
Parents impacted by a child with an eating disorder that I can serve are:
- Female
