Hello everyone, and thank you so much for keeping up with me through this recent scare. I'd like to fully explain what happened in greater detail, and I would also like to clarify that I think my cousin may have made the situation sound a little more dire than it really is. I asked her to update my journal for me and tell everyone I'd be back soon, but wanting to be helpful, she posted a discussion topic and gave off the vibe that I was in critical condition. Although I am doing porrly and will be entering the treatment programs she mentioned, the hospital visit was only for bloodwork and electrolyte replacement, nothing ike heart failure or anything. It is also true that I collapsed, which was the reason my parents decdied to look into getting me into an alternative treatment sooner rather than later. I think Gabby may have gotten really upset by the whole ordeal, since this is the first time she really witnessed me at one of my lowest weight points. As a response, she kind of impulsively assumed things were worse than they really were. She is also extremely upset by my appearance, which is admittedly much smalelr than when she saw me last. But I just wanted everyone to know that I am still on the track to recovery and will be just fine. Thank you again to everyone who responded, it meant so much to know you cared. ALL MY LOVE,Megan

I\'m so relieved that you are doing better and are getting the proper help that you need and so deserve. I love you, Meg, and I know that you will be just fine, because you are so, so strong and have a heart made of gold. I\'m so thankful that you are no longer medically unstable and that you\'re parents are taking action. They must really care for you.
Thanks so much for the update. I was so, so worried about you. I hope with all of my heart that this short hospital visit gave you a wake up call and made you more motivated to reach for recovery. I know that sometimes really horrible things have to happen in order for your brain to finally register that recovery is the only option.
Stay well and take care of yourself. I\'m always here if you need to talk...xoxo

Yay! I am so glad that you are doing better, and still fighting. Although as many on here know I AM NOT A FAN OF WALDEN, I really hope that maybe its just me and that you can find some benefit from it. I am a tad confused though. Are you doing residential at klarman? Or partial at Walden? I am utterly confused but happy you are doing better! I love you.
