About the Book

Kevin Olmsted's road to hell started when his 14 year old daughter and best friend, M, dropped 30 pounds in 60 days and disappeared from their family's reality. Anorexia wasn't something he knew anything about, and he had no one to turn to for help, guidance or support. He and his wife went from hospital visits to residential care facilities to outpatient programs and back to the hospital. Kevin then turned his life inside out, he quit working and left his 23 year wine career to stay home full time and teach his daughter to eat again. Over the time he was hunkered down in treatment for M, he faced every battle and terror that anorexia can throw at a child's family. Kevin repeatedly picked himself up off the matt, regrouped his courage, and kept coming back to help and love the teenage girl who desperately needed him. Scared Dad Feeding is part cathartic memoir of a horrific life with a mental disorder, part call to arms for other parents in his community to open their eyes and ears to the reality of eating disorders, and part field guide for how parents can find a path through the darkness of hell that is anorexia. Scared Dad Feeding is by no means a definitive work on anorexia, nor does it find a cure. But it does beg parents to have the courage to take on the fight of their life, because eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of any mental disorder ever diagnosed.

Review :
Don't let Kevin's wicked sense of humor fool you; Scared Dad Feeding is a heart wrenching and powerful book on a difficult subject: eating disorders ... Thank you, Kevin, for giving us hope and the courage to tackle our own family's demons. -Leslie and Dave Morris This was an unbelievably candid and RAW account of one family's journey to hell and back... I LOVE your honestly, profanity, grittiness and sheer dedication to the one common goal.... -Sandra K. Kevin has achieved an extraordinary feat - he has captured the fear and reality of a severe eating disorder and helped others by doing so... Thank you, Kevin, for a raw, honest, heart wrenching book. -Katie Nittler Having spent almost half of my life battling my own disorder in silence... This is a war cry for scared parents everywhere that you are not alone, and you can overcome! -Name withheld
