Someday Melissa, the story of an eating disorder, loss and hope



Someday Melissa book cover DVDs of the documentary Someday Melissa, the story of an eating disorder, loss and hope, are now available for pre-order.  On May 6, 2009, after a five-year battle with bulimia, 19 year old Melissa Avrin died of a heart attack. A gifted writer, Melissa kept a journal during her years of struggle with bulimia and depression.  Along with words of sadness and pain, there were powerful messages of hope that Judy Avrin, Melissa's mother, felt needed to be shared.  Her poem "Someday..." became the inspiration for the documentary that Judy created with Danna Markson, LCSW, and Director Jeffrey Cobelli.
