Hi, Amy! Thanks for subscribing to my substack (I'll post something soon!). I've enjoyed all of your posts, but this one really hit home. I understand what it's like to have to leave a child at a treatment center. I've had to do it twice. I also suffered from an eating disorder as a teen, so I felt Cope's pain. I'm glad you're both doing better.

I have tears in my eyes. Huge kudos to you and Cope for sharing this difficult story so that others can find comfort and help. I will most definitely listen to the podcast. Thank you for being vulnerable.
