Tamar,

Your friend is so lucky to have someone like you in his corner.  I believe that G_D does listen.  However, we may not always get the answer from Him that we desire.  I have been in a similar place when I was about 17 or 18 yr old.  I dated a boy who told me I was fat.  I wasn't, but I believed him and ate less and less every day, until I was passing out frequently.  My mother called our doctor to our apartment to check me out.  He told me that if I didn't begin to eat I would never be able to have children.  Well, I stopped seeing that boy and began to eat normally again.  I wish I had a friend like you in my corner then.

     Love and hugs,  Aunt Doris
