Synopsis
A harrowing, yet inspiring, true story of one family's struggle to save their daughter. Excerpts from the actual diaries of a mother and daughter take readers inside their home, their family, and their minds to see how they react to, cope with, and ultimately win their battle over teen depression and eating disorders., "Last night I asked my mom some questions about bulimia and anorexia. I thought for sure she would know what I was doing to myself. How could a mother not know the terrible things her daughter was doing?" "Tara seems fine these last few days. The questions she asked me the other night scared me. But now I think she's just curious. Maybe one of her friends is having a problem with something." Mother and daughter, living in the same house, yet at times it seems as though they are on different planets. Tara, growing obsessive about the way she looks, feels her mom no longer understands her. Linda, while concerned about the changes her teenage daughter is going through, is focused on making a career for herself as a family therapist. Neither knows how to reverse the terrible path that Tara is heading down. Tara's and Linda's side-by-side diaries of this difficult time, only shared with each other years later, show both sides of their maddening ordeal and inspiring victory to keep their family together. In addition to sharing their actual diaries, Tara and Linda look back on the drama of those years to offer the wisdom and perspective that can only come with hindsight. Craig Johnson, Ph.D., an international leader in the research and treatment of eating disorders, offers useful advice and fascinating commentary on the Rios' story to inform today's families who may be going through similar situations.

    The book I bought was exactly as described (practically mint, considering its age), packed safely & securely, and shipped right away - thank you! This book is, by the way, a great one, at a terrific price especially for being such a hard to find, long out of print, sequel to Daniel Pinkwater’s classic “Young Adult Novel”).
