Hello-Been A Long Time

Hi! So it's been a long time since our last post but we've been getting some emails from people so I thought I should update the blog. Lots has been going on since our last post. McKaelen has made a new YouTube video that is available on her channel that you can find by going onto YouTube and searching McKaelen Elliot. Or I'll try to add it here:

OOH I did it!!!

She is doing VERY well with her ARFID recovery. We have turned a corner in the eating department. She is eating chicken and hamburgers on her own will! This is something that two years ago she would have never, ever done. She has started a new job at a restaurant and comes home and tells me about all the new things she tries. I am overwhelmed with joy and gratitude to all the professionals that helped get her to the point where she is now. It is unbelievable. She is the happiest she has ever been.

My novel, Sad Perfect, which is based on McKaelen's recovery, will be out in just about six months. We are very excited because once it's published we hope that even more people will become aware of ARFID and more doctors will know how to treat it.

If you have a loved one with ARFID or if YOU have ARFID, please know you can get the right help. We were once at a total loss. We once thought she would never be happy. We once were a family that was dysfunctional and miserable, but with the right treatment, we are out of that dark place now, and things are looking up. If you need to talk to someone who has been there; if you want to share your experience, please feel free to get in touch. We just want to let you know that you can get better, you can enjoy food someday, and YOU ARE NOT ALONE in this fight. XO
