We are still waiting for news on Older Daughter and her Cambridge entrance. I am not sure Waif should ever go through this as the stress is quite enormous on her.
Meanwhile, the Maudsley telephoned to offer Waif a review appointment. The first two days that they suggested are ones where Waif is sitting GCSE modules so were not possible. I have plumped for the day after her exams finish. I am not going to tell her until after the papers as I don't want her worrying about two things at once. I am hoping that the review will go well. I am glad that it means she will be weighed....hmmmm...that is the only reason to warn her weeks in advance as she always eats in anticipation of a weighing. Remembering where we were with Waif 2 years back makes me relax about this Oxbridge stuff actually. OD is healthy, happy and settled. I can't ask for more.

A journal of a fight against anorexia, and the fading of my now 14 year old daughter. She was only 12 when it first began. I wanted to make Waif real again, substantial. 18 months on, Waif has regained some presence in this world and I am prepared to grab her to keep her from dimming once more. The Maudsley has been a godsend but mostly it has been hard work, the most worthwhile work we have ever done.
