This is Family Life Today. This is Family Life Today. It's crazy when you think about the memories that you have as a kid and one of the

memories that stands out to me my sister and I were best friends we slept in a full-sized bed all of our years growing up and

she's not kidding. She's six and a half years older. I didn't know it at the time and

she did know it about me but both of us had been abused sexually.

But my sister had an eating disorder. The thing that I remember most is she was

bulimic and so she would binge and she'd say to me Anne, go in the kitchen and get and she'd name all the foods to get.

And so I'd bring them into the bedroom and we'd put them on the bed and we'd have this picnic at like midnight.

And we would gorge and I was like, how can she eat this much?

I think I was probably nine and I would eat and eat and eat not knowing that she was getting rid of it by throwing up.

But we would do that over and over and I didn't even know what Blemia was.

So interesting.

But then I started catching her throwing up, even on vacation, she'd camp and she'd go into the

woods.

And then her Blemia at one point turned to anorexia and I saw Jesus do the most amazing

transformation in her becoming whole,

becoming whole, her becoming whole,

her becoming healthy, and really,

God just took away, which was miraculous because it doesn't happen very often
