IWK Patients
When Molly and Jayne woke up on the morning of their fifth wedding anniversary in June 2023, they never expected that within 24 hours, they would be at the IWK.
In 2009, when Amy was 15 years old, she sought the help of the IWK, thanks to her parents’ loving and encouraging support. She was suffering from an eating disorder, anxiety and depression, which were taking a severe toll on her life.
