The still images of Emma collapsed in Ade Barkan’s arms are a bit to real to bear. After years of struggling to beat her anorexia, Hila passed away" - where did the name Emma come from?? Amber - she is very pale, and rather thin. It's also a fashion photo, so any flaws on the outside would have been photoshopped out. And a person could look okay on the outside, but be very ill on the inside. That's like me at the moment - look absolutely fine and all recovered, but my blood is messed up. MamaV - an eating disordered person looking at those weights is going to think "i'm fat. I need to be as thin as that for someone to take me seriously". People with EDs are only taken seriously if they are emaciated - an awful and incorrect stereotype which is being reinforced here. “video recorded Emma’s disturbing life and eventual death.
