Re: Mars/Seven
We are including him, when we all get together. This isn't ambush or sabotage or anything else that could be spun as something totally negative. This is the people closest to him, the people that care about him more than anybody, figuring out a way to tell him that we need him to be healthy. This goes beyond just wanting or idly wishing, because we've all done that. Now? I need him to take real steps toward his health. I just got Jamie in my life, I don't want to lose him. I'm not even talking about death. I don't want him to get so depressed he can't come out of it, or so malnourished that he can't do his dance stuff anymore.
It is scary. He could feel hurt, he could feel betrayed. But those are just going to be the surface, panic-reponses of his eating disorder wanting to keep him sick. Because if Jamie really looks at us, really hears us, and you, he will know without a doubt that this is an act of love, and a good thing.
