Journal entry by Michelle Montgomery —
One year ago today, Lydia was admitted to Children's Hospital for medical stabilization due to Anorexia. Little did we know then how long this journey would be. Fast forward 1 year and Lydia is healthy and on her way to full recovery! Praise the Lord! She still has struggles, and probably always will, but she always fights through the tough times and is working towards being the best Lydia she can be! Soon, she will be fully discharged from Melrose, finishing up her last few therapy sessions with her wonderful therapist. We ask for continued prayers as we contemplate navigating the remainder of this journey without support from Melrose and once again thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for your love and support this last year! We could not have gotten through any of it without God and our loved ones.
