I was at mms from 91-early 94. I was there when we were less then 10, and one was a boy! We went skiing up at big mountain every week, AA meetings in Seeley Lake, and the Finn boys were 5 and 7 or so. [ This Message was edited by: babylove on 2006-05-28 15:38 ]

I do not have anyone elses contact info. Pretty much when they left, that was the end. I think that Katie H has Kaywins info. They were pretty close. I think Meshica was 12 when she came. I have never heard from her. I no loinger have Stephanies info.

DUDE! I remember JG, I just got to MMS and was wondeing why the hell she was being sold as a success story and spoke at graduation but was completey emaciated- concentration camp emaciated I mean, not just skinny!! Bones potruding and everything! MMS was not equipped to handle really any mental illness, but I can see why they woudl only make most symptoms especially anorxia and bulemia 1000% worse. The fear and punishing methods just mess you up!! I dont understand how that escaped radar of all the parents. If that was my child or I was a parent there for graduation I would have taken my kid out immediately. just goes to show, desperate parents will believe anything, including a success story from a girl who looked like Karen Carpenter! Depressing...

I saw that with JG, that was a really incredibly sad day... I remember feeling in my gut that MMS was not helping me at all and that likely it did not help her... maybe she'll speak to this?
I just worry about the girls I loved, close friends who I know had serious eating disorder issues and other mental health issues who I know were just were not being helped but were not free to verbalize as such and whose parents were sold on the program... there was nothing specific about MMS to deal with such precarious issues. as in my case, depression, ADD... such an unexcusable thing to harm an already vulneralble population.
Anyway, I was really wanted to post about Sam Morris- Baby Love, know of any way she may be reached? She was one that I felt close to and thought MMS likely did her in. I hope she is doing well and kicking ass, but I have serious doubts...
