Rachael Farrokh, 37, from San Clemente, Southern California, developed anorexia more than 10 years ago after losing her job and struggling to get over a painful memory from her past. Now, she has released a video on YouTube spotlighting her fight against the life-threatening eating disorder. In the footage, she explains how her condition has severely declined in recent months, leaving her emaciated and too weak to move around on her own.
She also reveals how her husband, Ron Edmondson, has had to quit his job to become her 24-hour caregiver, while area hospitals won't treat her because her 'dangerous' weight makes her a 'liability'. 'There's one hospital across the country that can help, and my chances are very slim.
We need your help,' a gaunt-looking Ms Farrokh says in the video, asking viewers to donate 'anything you can'. Pictured bottom right is Mr Farrokh before anorexia took hold.
