Eating Disorders Kill. Just Ask Featherweight Inc.'s Debbie Begenynew

Featherweight, Inc. was established to promote a healthy body image and educate the public about eating disorders. Founded by Debbie Begeny, an energetic woman who lost her only child Heather Begeny in 2003 to anorexia, the organization has worked in schools to inform parents, teachers and students about eating disorders. They also help with out-of-pocket expenses that one's insurance may not cover, paying for prescriptions and therapy.
