Congratulations Harriette.
Irish Times Health Hero nomination script:
“My health hero is my dietician, Hariette Lynch. I am from XXXX but i travel every two weeks to Dublin to see her. I honestly believe that I would be dead without her. I am in recovery from anorexia nervosa and Hariette works relentlessly alongside me. She is the only dieitican I have met that works with the emotional side of eating. She understands that eating disorders are not just about weight and food. She is a strong woman who set up her own business and had a baby daughter last year. She works with Lois Bridges, an eating disorder center in Sutton where she saves lives on a weekly basis. She takes no whinging and I leave every appointment feeling empowered to make changes. She has encouraged me to wear dresses, say yes to things I would never have before, such as meeting a friend for a coffee date. She has helped me, day by day, through email and the phone to attempt to rebuild my life. Anorexia is a horrific disease and it will try to steal every last inch of you, Hariette helps me to see that I matter and one day I hope to be half as strong and courageous as she is. it takes an incredible human to fight a horrendous disease and she is helping me to become incredible”.
