Hang in There, Wherever 'There' Is

Published : Monday, 28 Mar 2011, 10:38 AM EDT

(WTNH) - Hang in There, Wherever 'There' Is is a compelling and poignant memoir by Nicole Roberge and chronicles her journey through the disease of anorexia, the recovery process, and all that comes with it: the hurt, hope and humor. After almost dying from the disease, and being neglected by the doctors, the author sought recovery and spent seven weeks at an inpatient facility. In her powerful story, she digs into the depths of Anorexia and describes how her simple diet and exercise program turned into a horrific eating disorder-one that controlled her life and forced her to go to the gym every day for four hours and reduce her diet to only fruit. After almost suffering from a heart attack and amazed that she was still alive, she knew she had to save herself and get treatment. Today, she is a survivor. By telling her story of the disease and recovery process, she not only educates the reader about eating disorders, but also shares with them a secret world unknown to many, and most importantly, that there is hope and recovery is possible.
