I don't think she could have been forced to eat or been tube fed against her will either.
But, since anoxeria is classified as a psychological disorder, I would hope that she could have been deemed a threat to herself and committed for psych treatment; psych treatment which might have prompted her to eat.
Maybe her husband and family tried everything like that to no avail?
IDK, if she was my sister or daughter, I might have tied her up in a room and force fed her (and maybe ended up going to jail for it).
She can't even walk without assistance now.
