Dear carer I've emerged from the most terrifying and bewildering battle in my life. And I want to help you avoid some of the most terrible pitfalls, which I was very fortunate to escape. I know what it's like when the terms "Anorexia" or "Eating Disorder" or "Bulimia" first get used in your house about your family. I still remember when it became clear my daughter was suffering from Anorexia Nervosa - I was blind-sided - taken by complete and utter surprise. As the parent of a daughter with an Eating Disorder, this might be the most important message you will ever read. My name is Kathryn*, and as a carer, I helped my daughter fight and beat an Eating Disorder. And I will share everything I learned with you. Probably much like you, I was terrified when I first encountered an Eating Disorder. Once I knew our 'baby girl' had Anorexia, I was overcome with fear and questions : Is this really as bad, or deadly, as I've read in magazines ? Should we have done something differently, or what should I be doing now ? What can we do immediately ? Why is this happening to us ? Who else can help us ? Will she grow out of it ? What if it's not treated ? Is there a clear cause and medication to help ? All the while, no matter what I read, or who I spoke to, no one seemed to agree on what we should do, NOW, to save my loved one. My first reaction was to 'Google' all the major terms about the illness. I spent 72 hours with a total of 6 hours sleep, collating, copying and formatting all the advice I could find online. You're probably wondering what I did with all that effort and research ? The answer is ... NOTHING ! All I'd managed to do was condense a world of conflicting opinions, self-proclaimed experts, stories of pain and loss and suffering. Once I carefully read all the information I now had in my hands, I was lost and terrified. I could see no help in sight. Then it hit me. After reading the full stories of some of these sufferers, I realized my beautiful girl was actually at risk of dying. Dead, at 14 years of age ! As it dawned on me I might outlive my child , my hands shook uncontrollably and I just cried - I sobbed in fact, in a way I never have - for hours that felt like days. This beautiful girl ... what has gone wrong ? Why us ? Which is why I'm writing this now. In this day and age, many of us rely on the internet for advice. But I had this sinking feeling the information I'd found was downright dangerous. It turns out a lot of it was, in fact it was potentially lethal ! I then started buying books - dozens of them - anything I could find on Amazon, Google searches and Ebay, I ordered all of them. Books by experts, books by sufferers, about families who had won, and families who had lost. They arrived over a period of 2 weeks, and I took one month's leave from work to read them all, cover-to-cover. I took comprehensive notes in my 'Fight Journal' as it became known (as I learned more about EDs I realized I was in the fight of my life). And guess what ? The opinions of all these educated and experienced people all differed hugely ! I couldn't find one book that gave me confidence it contained the answer for my loved one. I was drowning in information, and couldn't think what to start doing to help my beautiful fragile girl. I became so frustrated with the judgmental looks from other mothers at school, and their effect on my husband and I, as if we caused our daughter to want to diet herself to death. They clearly had decided it was all my fault. And here I was, doing so much, but making no difference. I cringed at the thought of the school formal when this little girl might be expected to wear a backless dress and people would see her in a state like some of the Hollywood starlets who look like bags of bones. Really I wondered if she would even be able to go to a prom in her state, as I pictured her in a hospital bed with tubes in her nose. There was no way I could find any feelings of hope or positive ways forward. I felt completely confused and helpless. As the weeks wore on, this previously beautiful child looked worse every day. She became ruder and more withdrawn, and at times it was like she absolutely hated everyone, especially us, her parents.. Arguments started over nothing. Time at the dinner table was filled with anger and hurt. We watched while she behaved like a thing possessed ! Her father came close to moving out, and he was so angry with this little girl, all the time. I found an online E-Book promising a cure for EDs and success in a few weeks ! I thought I had struck gold, but my faith in human nature was destroyed after reading hundreds of pages of incomprehensible drivel and a heap of links encouraging me to buy meditation CD's. Worst of all, I had wasted precious time and money on a dead end. I then found super-expensive overseas clinics advertising guaranteed success. In this book I also cover one of the most famous clinics ever to treat sufferers, the same one attended by Bronte Cullis. I also found a local clinic offering an outpatient service, and visited and met some of the young girls under their care. I have tears in my eyes now as I write this, this is such an unforgiving illness. I also spoke to some specialists, but it just made things even more confusing. And this is just the tip of the iceberg. The confusion and conflict in information continued. It was then I knew I had to seek outside help and see someone face to face, I had delayed it in the vain hope we'd make some progress. We'd continued with faith in our family doctor, who was comfortable, and openly suggested we were dealing with a teenage 'phase'. Our daughter happily agreed she would get better soon. So why was I still so terrified ? I had read by now hundreds of horror stories of misdiagnosis and inaction. I was later to learn the Doctor and my daughter were behaving exactly as the eating disorder wanted. We were deep in the grip of 'Ana'. At that point I started contacting specialists from all over the World. I found out some much more structured information. There was still differing opinions about what I should do, but I found people who could commit clear advice and suggestions about taking action. The challenge was understanding ... who is right ? To cut short my long story, this is when I started to make real progress. I solidified the best advice from all the online resources, all the books and all the specialists. My "Fight Journal" was becoming a real "How To" manual. I turned the best of the best into a book I could refer to. I had stumbled upon my AT HOME ACTION PLAN kind of accidentally.. I identified and listed how to avoid all the horror stories. I found a way to acknowledge, unravel and attack this lethal disease on my home ground. It's not like there wasn't plenty of information available, it's just that it was spread far and wide. People disagreed on not only what I should do, but how and when I should do it. I was able to find the secret to help her father cope with his disappointment and anger, and restore his unconditional love and care for our little girl. I'm not saying I'm a medical professional - I'm definitely not. I'm not even saying I am incredibly clever, I'm a typical mother-next-door. I can read and write reasonably but I'm no genius, by any stretch. BUT, I believe it is my job to care for and protect my daughter. Just like it is any parent's job to step between this runaway illness and their child. The first responsibility, like everything else in parenting, is to find the right advice, and then decide how to act on that advice to suit the family. I don't believe anyone can or should outsource this responsibility to anyone, including medical doctors, or hospitals and clinics. If you're prepared to buy all the books and browse all the information on all the websites and talk to experts round the world, I honestly believe you will also find a way to begin treating this illness from home. If you're a caring parent or other responsible adult like me, you can do it ! But, be ready for the confusion and disappointment, and the mess of differing views and advice. The idea of this E-Book is to save you the precious time needed to become knowledgeable about Anorexia, Bulimia and other EDs. Time is so important - you need to act as soon as possible to arrest the progress of this disease. I'm not saying there is a one-size-fits-all treatment - there is NOT ... and anyone who claims there is, is either lying or ignorant. However, with the right knowledge, you can and will learn how to find and implement the right treatment for your loved one. With the knowledge, extra determination and resolve gained as a direct result of the information I gathered, I went on to document the secrets to fight and beat this disease in your home environment . I have uncovered stories of many Eating Disorder survivors, and documented the experience of them and their families. Hear from parents who've been through this turmoil and emerged victorious. I can say, with absolute certainty, many of these children would not be here now if the information contained in this E-Book had not been acted upon. I don't want you to feel as helpless as I did. Eating Disorders At Home is the How To Guide to start your successful battle to beat this terrifying illness. Together with your daughter you can restore a bright future and escape the grip of Anorexia, Bulimia and other EDs.

In the most acute stages of Bronte's illness, doctors told me Bronte could not recover and that I should let her die. This led me on a quest, first to secure life saving treatment for Bronte, then to develop a deeper understanding about eating disorders and, most importantly, how to treat them. Bronte is now a happy and healthy adult, and has written her own book about the ordeal. She has accomplished so much with her life to date, even though doctors gave up hope for her. There is hope. And you can act. This e-Book is a great starting point to begin your shared journey to recovery.

What's all this going to cost ? When I first bought the many books needed to understand all the dangers of Eating Disorders, I spent over $1,200 just in Amazon and local bookstore purchases. Money was no object, but I was fortunate to be able to afford such an investment at that time (and I've since invested much more time and money in further books and expert consultation). I wanted to put all this information in reach of anyone who needs it, so the E-Book, with it's wealth of information, and all the bonus material, is priced at just $79. That's a fraction of what you'd need to spend on hardcover books, and it's instantly delivered to you with a link sent by email.

A DISCOUNT TO MAKE IT AN EASY DECISION I have added this section as a recent bonus, and it is a genuine limited offer. I received feedback from a couple of mothers who emailed me to say $79 is still a big investment in these tough financial times. Even though they said they need the book and will part with the money to help their daughter, they each said it would be nice if I could supply it cheaper or free of charge. I'm not doing this purely to try to recoup the money I have spent in books and research, because I HAD TO do it anyway for my loved one. I would however like to reinvest in improving this site and producing more helpful ED information over time. For now, I have decided to reduce the book asking price for the short-term, and you can get the E-Book and all bonuses for a single purchase price of $59, saving $20 from the original price. I've always set out to get this book to as many families as possible, and I hope this offer will give you access to your copy which you can put to use now. $20 slashed off the book price for a short time I hope this makes your decision even easier to be able to buy this book and set your loved one on her path to recovery.
