April 9

April 9 is a sacred day for me for two reasons. Eleven years ago, on April 9, 1997, my dear friend Evan killed himself. On April 9, 2003, I was released from Renaissance (the place I went to for treatment for my eating disorder). It's the day he chose to die, but the day I chose to live. To today is a big day for me--Five years of working on my recovery! I posted a while back about all of this, so I won't go on right now. To see that post again, click here.
