The story behind Blossom Place.
Struggling for a long time in the world of an eating disorder, I experienced being alone and afraid with no safe place to go. I walked into recovery in October of 2011. Even as I abstained from drugs and alcohol, I lacked the support to recover from the eating disorder.
In less than a year, I was admitted to the hospital. The disorder took on a whole new power and strength that had my body shutting down. The doctor told me that I had to stop, or I would die. The road to recovery — to health and wellbeing — was long and difficult. Blossom Place was created to fill the need for love and support that would have greatly benefited me throughout my own journey.
