Staring Death in the Face

This is a real-life account of a family dealing with anorexia of one of its own. Sarah nearly died. She could have died at any time as her body had begun to shut down. The local medical services said that they had never come across anyone with such a low body mass index (weight) as hers. Sarah was heard screaming out as her body began to close down at death's door. But by the grace of God, she miraculously survived. The events are chronicled by the author, Sarah s father; plus there is a very poignant additional contribution portrayal through the eyes of her sister Olivia too together these sections paint the picture of what this family had to endure and complement each other. This is a book which I am sure you will find hard to put down and will educate you not only as far as the illness of anorexia is concerned but also in seeing how it can be transcended.
