Story

I am Annabel Norris, age 20. I have suffered with anorexia for over 7 years now. I have recovered but i know the illness will always be in the back of my mind. It started when i was bullied at school for my ginger hair. I have been hospitalized 3 times and nearly a 4th, but something clicked that 4th time which saved my life. the last time i was admitted i was just less than 5 stone, possibly less and i only had hours to live. It was the scariest feeling in my life and i fight against this illness every day to make sure i dont end up in the same position i was. I have now redyed my hair back to its natural colour and i am starting to love the way that i look. I have friends who have all so been through a similar experience to me and i am doing this charity skydive to help as many people as is possible to survive and beat this illness. I would like to thank my family and friends for helping me pull through this illness and i hope i can help do the same others. I would appreciate all the donations i can get to help other people. I really hope you can help. Thankyou so much.  I have been published in numerous newspapers.
