Quite a few people have asked me about our Granddaughter April, who is in treatment for anorexia and depression as I have documented here. As you may recall, she went into in-treatment April 1 of this year after being hospitalized locally due to the affects anorexia was having on her body. It was to be a six month treatment but she will be staying at least until some time in November. She is progressing well and sounds a lot like her old self now but she still has a little to go so they are keeping her longer than planned to be sure she is ready to leave.
She told me recently during a weekly phone conversation she is humbled and so thankful for all the support and prayers some from people she hardly knows. She needs to feel she has worth and is loved and many have provided that. Her family very much appreciates that kindness.
We hope to have her home soon back to the old April we remember but we also want her to remain in treatment until she is completely stable. When she comes back she says she wants to live with her Dad, who many of you know is ill. She is a wonderful, caring young lady.
