Lighter Than My Shadow

Like most kids, Katie was a picky eater. She'd sit at the table in silent protest and listen to parental threats of having to eat her dinner for breakfast. But normal behavior can soon turn into something sinister and deadly. This is a story of struggle, recovery, and a trip into the black heart of anorexia. It's an exposure of those who prey on the weak and an inspiration to anyone who believes in the power of human will to endure towards happiness.
