Title: Eli's Wings
Review: I bought this book as serendipity led me to it... while reading 'The Year We Seized the Day' co- authored by Elizabeth Best. My niece is anorexic and very ill and this book gave me an inside view on the condition - something I very much needed as it turns out. It is written with honesty and simplicity and I would recommend it to anyone needing guidance into this frightening condition. I learned that it IS a disease and as such has to be treated as you would treat illness- not just as a destructive whim of a teenage girl. I have passed it on to my sister so that it may light up a very dark space in her life and give her some strategies to deal with her daughter, some grace to cope with the uncopeable and some hope at this dark time for her. Thank you for coming to me 'Eli's Wings' and I hope that you make your way to others who need you...PS This book is out of print in Australia so you can buy it second hand overseas. Eli's website says that there is a new edition coming out soon.
