Monday evening, Tom and Doris Smeltzer gathered at the Health Science Research Center, 750 Highland Ave., to share the story of their daughter, Andrea Smeltzer, a young woman from California who lost her struggle with bulimia at the age of 19 after a 13-month battle.
“Andrea’s Voice: Eating Disorders From a Daughter’s Insight and a Parent’s Perspective,” was put together by Andrea’s parents in an attempt to educate students and parents around the country about eating disorders while keeping their daughter’s memory alive.
