This is the story of a beautiful, young woman — a talented athlete and musician, raised in a loving home, surrounded by friends — undermined by a ruthless inner voice that claimed her body and her spirit. Emilee: The Story of a Girl and Her Family Hijacked by Anorexia reveals the cracks in our health care system, the institutions we are taught to trust, as well as our own prejudices and misinformation about eating disorders, mental illness, and addiction.
Through the use of parallel narrative, Linda and John Mazur provide an intimate and realistic account of how their world was turned upside down by anorexia nervosa. A must-listen for physicians, therapists, and social workers, or anyone who wants to learn more about how to respond more compassionately to families and patients caught in the web of this cruel disease.

This audiobook is special because her parents narrated it, and it includes some of Emilee's own words.
I commend the Mazurs for being open about many difficult topics. I found myself feeling angry at our medical and legal system, as they failed Emilee over and over. I was angry at insurance companies too.
It is clear from Emilee's story that there is much education to be done for society in general.

As a behavioral health RN today, I am glad that in ways, it seems much has improved since 2016 regarding eating disorder recognition and treatment modalities. The struggle for access to treatment and insurance intricacies sound familiar, but also grey improved after
Thank you for sharing Emilee's story with the world. I agree that this is a story every medical proffessional should read.
Editing aside, heart wrenching and important story
