Smella

I’m really worried about Ella. I think I might’ve mentioned her in here before. Last year we were all worrying because we think she might be anorexic. She brings loads of lunch but only really has a few bites and then throws it away. And she gives away her chocolate and one of the two drinks she brings. She’s lost a lot of weight. She is someone who works very hard but she is always doing homework whenever we invite her out for a meal or just out…anywhere. It’s not as if she’s a loner. She’s pretty popular actually. She just never comes out.
Anyway, we started back at school yesterday and all day she was close to tears. Psychology lesson she was sitting opposite me and Twin Chris made a little joke about her and we all laughed (including her) then i said about 20 seconds later…"she doesn’t look very happy" (talking about her reaction to his slightly mean joke) and she almost burst into tears. Me and Zoe were like "you ok Smella?" and she just wiped her eyes with the tissue she had in her hand…i think it had been there all day…and said that she no she wasnt but she didnt want to talk about it because she would get upset. She then said "it’ll be ok though. I’m going to the doctors later today". I mentioned the episode to Emily (who is and always has been close to her) and she said something happened over the holidays that Ella’s not coping very well with. God, I hope she’s OK. Of course I didn’t ask anymore from Emily because it’s not my business. But I am so worried. Bless little Ella. She’s the nicest mst genuine person you could meet. Slightly naive and very blonde but that just makes her even more huggable.
Well, then she came into school today and immediately dropped 2 of her subjects. So I think possibly the doctor told her to slow down. She does work HARD. and doesn’t ever give herself a break…I think that was wise. But…man I just wish I knew what was wrong so I could help her.
