I suffered with an eating disorder through my teenage years. When I was 15, I spent over a month in hospital refusing to eat. I was on an IV drip, was a dangerously low weight, and my organs were on the brink of failing. If I had the choice to die then, I would have taken it.

When a grandchild dies, grandparents feel intense sadness. Others, however, can overlook their grief as they understandably focus on the bereaved parents. If you know a bereaved grandparent it can help to keep in touch, send a card or simply say how sorry you are. Thankyou
