tidbits

That's what she's eating again ... she begged for pumpkin pancakes and ate part of one.

I noticed this was I've become aware of what we're dealing with, in this disorder. She talks a lot at dinner, as if to distract us from the fact she isn't eating. She also talks with her hands all through dinner. She's so expressive. Filling our heads with the activities of her day. We don't have time to see, as our plates are empty, hers is full. Then it's time to rush off to do homework, showers, whatever we have planned. These manipulations and tricks are pretty smart for just a tiny little twelve year old.

I think there is a light at the end of this very, very, very dark tunnel. She's such a bright light, I wish she saw it in herself.
