    Jo Feeney's Interests
General

Writing Poetry
The last few years I have been writing a lot more poetry, it's not only therapeutic, but it puts in true expression what's in my soul. I often post these poems into my blogs - so check them out - and subscribe if you like.

Music
I have been involved in music, singing in choirs since about 10 years old. I play the piano - almost finished all my exams, but this was cut short by the eating disorder. I am still singing in our church choir and loving it - I love hearing all those beautiful parts - tenor / alto / melody being sung and the voices tuned to each other. It's magical. When I was very ill with Anorexia - I could no longer sing - not because my vocal chords were damaged - but because my heart was broken. Since recovering - it's one of the greatest joys - to be able to sing again. To have something to sing about - and Someone to thank for giving me back my life.

Writing
I love to write - whether this is writing books - as in the full story of my recovery "Free to Live", or poetry, or Messages of Hope (check out my website and newsletter - www.joluhrs.com). Often there is a fair bit of reading I need to do - in order to write with truth.

Family
My family is a gift, a have a wonderful hubby, and 2 grown up children - who love life in all it's fullness. Funny enough I am the shortest in the family of giants - Hubby is 6'3, son is 6'4, daughter is 5'7 - and I am 5'6 - so I have decided short is definitely beautiful, and am definitely getting used to being patted on the head by my son - who constantly asks me how the weather is down there.

   Jo Feeney's Blurbs
About me:

After suffering with acute Anorexia Nervosa for 7 years I am now totally cured. My miracle involved my faith in God, and my support from my health care professionals.

I believe I have been rescued from this life disaster to help other people, not just in the arena of eating disorders but who are in need in many areas.

I have recently published the whole story of my journey through anorexia back to life.

EXCERPT FROM "Free to Live the rest of my Journey"

‘...GOD, I’ll give you anything....but not my weight issues...’

One of the main characteristics of an eating disorder, more than the food issue is CONTROL. Everything else in your life can be like a whirlpool spinning out of control, but at least you have control over your weight (or it has control over you).

Anyone would have thought Jo Feeney had the life many dream about. As the daughter of a well-known pastor, and a wife of wonderful minister, it seemed from all who looked at her life that everything was wonderful. No-one would never have imagined the torment of obsession with anorexia she was to endure.

Jo bravely tells the story of the years in which her life spiralled out of control, and how she almost lost her life to the disease. She tells of the grace of a Loving Saviour who took her by the hand and rescued her life.

Jo has been totally healed from the eating disorder for over 10 years, and has a great desire to help others who are afflicted and affected beyond their control.

I love connecting with girls and women on myspace in particular with Eating Disorder issues, whether Anorexia, Bulimia, Ednos - or anything connected. I am a fully recovered Anorexic, and am here to share hope with my sisters. I am not here to preach or judge, but bring love, truth, honour, respect, value, and dignity.

Hi, Jo, thank you for the blog comment.

I like your "new name" idea, "Keeper of the Treasures"! :)

I have, in fact, found many "treasures", both sentimental (such as photos) and of monetary value (a very impressive coin collection, among other things).

Thank you for the encouragement!
((Hugs)) K.

Hi Jo! How have you been? I know its been ages since I checked in. I only average coming to myspace about once a week anymore, if that. How's the family? I found out I'm having another little girl - Lacey James. I'm sure I'll get around to putting up ultrasound pics sometime soon. I got some 3-D ones and honestly, they're a bit creepy looking.
Take care

Hi - Things are going okay. Still getting used to this new "body". I've gained 7lbs since March - Can't fit into any of my old clothes but, on the bright side, I did get to go shopping. I HOPE its a girl. The heartbeat was 180 and, according to old wives' tales, the faster the beat means its a girl. Keep your fingers crossed. I'll find out for sure in August. Take care.
