Denny Meek: A Mother's Heart-Wrenching Journey Through Loss and Resilience

The more we talk about anorexia nervosa and teen suicide...the more we are able to assist parents, and particularly mums, who are in this space, and those teenagers that are perhaps thinking about the whole idea that they don't want to live anymore.
Ever wondered how a mother finds the strength to keep going after facing unimaginable loss? In this episode of 'Toni TV', host Toni Lontis sits down with Denny Meek, the author of ‘Still Standing – a mother’s raw journey from the shadows of loss to the dawning of hope’. This memoir isn't just a book; it's a lifeline for anyone grappling with the harsh realities of domestic violence, infant loss, single parenting, mental illness, teen suicide, and anorexia nervosa.
Denny shares her deeply personal story, offering an unfiltered look at her daughter's battle with anorexia and her son's tragic suicide. These experiences have profoundly shaped her life, and she speaks candidly about the importance of discussing these often-taboo topics. By sharing her story, Denny hopes to help other parents and teenagers navigate similar struggles. The conversation also touches on societal values, coping mechanisms for dealing with loss, and the transformative power of love and respect.
Whether you're a parent, a friend, or someone who's experienced loss yourself, this episode offers valuable insights and a message of resilience and hope.
