In Loving Memory

I don't talk much about personal things on this blog because it wasn't set up to be a personal diary. This entry will be personal.

My beautiful sister passed away on March 30th. I've talked about her once before, here. I loved her very much. She was loved by pretty much everyone who met her. She spent her life giving. She battled anorexia in its various stages for 30 years. Anorexia isn't just not eating. It stems from an inability to understand your worth. It includes an absence of self identity. It often begins as obsessive compulsive disorder and depression. My sister never wanted to be skinny. She didn't regulate her food to be thin. She just didn't think she had enough right to take up space.



Roslyn was a special soul with a gracious, gentle, loving spirit. You will be missed.
