The Beginning

So this will be my first post and I am unsure exactly what I am going to do with this blog, so forgive me as I struggle to find my way.

I have spent the last three years trying to get funding for treatment outside of Canada because I have exhausted all of the treatment options available to me.  We have one inpatient eating disorder program in this province and I have probably been there over 20 times.  The program and treatment team has, not doubt, saved my life.  While it has helped with symptom interruption and short term weight gain, I have always fallen backwards when discharged.

Unfortunately our ministry of health seems determined NOT to fund anyone so I am now facing another stay at the inpatient treatment where I have been many times before.  I am really scared but I am trying not to think to far ahead.  I remind myself that I can't KNOW what it will be like because things change.   I will take small steps, focusing on the present.
