At first glance they might be sisters, but look again at this startling picture. They are, in fact, a 26-year-old mother and her daughter. After suffering from anorexia for half her life, Rebecca Jones weighs five stone – less than her seven-year-old daughter, Maisy. And her terrifyingly thin frame is exacerbated by the contrast when they wear identical clothes.
一眼看上去，照片中的两人就像是姐妹，再仔细看看，她们其实是26岁的妈妈和她的女儿。丽贝卡·琼斯患厌食症长达13年，体重只有5英石（约31.75公斤），比她七岁大的女儿美丝还要轻。当琼斯和女儿穿上同样的衣服，她那瘦得恐怖的体形就愈发让人惊骇了。

The medical secretary survives on soup, toast and energy drinks – even though doctors have warned her the lack of nutrients could kill her. At the same time she encourages 5st 9lb Maisy to enjoy chocolate and cupcakes.
琼斯是一名医学秘书。尽管医生一再警告她，营养不良会导致其死亡，她还是只靠喝汤、吃吐司面包以及喝能量饮料来过活。同时，琼斯还鼓励自己5英石9磅（约35.85公斤）重的女儿美丝吃巧克力和蛋糕。

Miss Jones, who at 5ft 1in is eight inches taller than her daughter, said: ‘Wearing the same clothes as Maisy gives me a sense of pride. It’s wrong, but it makes me feel good. I don’t think I’m thin – I always see myself as bigger.’
琼斯身高5尺1寸（约155cm），比女儿高出8英寸（约20.32cm）。她说，“可以和女儿穿一样的衣服让我觉得很骄傲。我知道这样不好，但这让我觉得很开心。我不觉得自己很瘦，我一直觉得自己蛮胖的。”

‘I picked up one of Maisy’s skirts and it fitted perfectly,’ she said. ‘Maisy is 4ft 5in and wears 9-11 clothes. We share tops and jeans.’
琼斯说，“我有次拿起美丝的裙子，发现我穿起来很合身。美丝的身高是4尺5寸（约134.6cm），穿9到11号衣服（S号），我们俩上下身的衣服都可以互穿。”

Now her daughter’s weight has overtaken her as she enjoys cakes, chips and pizza. ‘It’s wonderful to see her enjoying cakes,’ said Miss Jones, ‘I’ve told her I have an eating disorder and she knows it’s a bad thing. And if she wants chocolate, I say yes – I don’t want to deny her food. ’
女儿很喜欢吃蛋糕、薯片和披萨，而且现在的体重也已经超过了她。琼斯却说，“看到女儿那么喜欢吃蛋糕，我觉得很开心。我告诉过她，我患有饮食失调症，她也知道这不是件好事。如果女儿想要吃巧克力，我都会同意，因为我不想阻止她吃东西。”

Earlier this year, blood tests revealed Miss Jones had dangerously low potassium levels – a condition known as hypokalemia, which causes extreme muscle weakness. She now has her potassium levels and heart rate monitored at regular check-ups. Doctors have warned her she is at risk of a fatal heart attack if she does not put on weight.
今年早些时候，琼斯的血液检测结果显示，她体内钾的含量非常低，已经到了危害健康的程度了，这种情况被称为低钾血，会造成严重的肌无力。现在，琼斯体内的钾水平和心跳都受到定期的监测。医生已经告诫过她，如果她再不增加体重的话，很有可能会导致致命的心脏病。

‘I’m terrified I won’t see Maisy grow up,’ she said. ‘I’d love to eat – I can think of nothing nicer than going out for lunch with Maisy, but I can’t.’
琼斯说，“我害怕没法看见美丝长大成人了。我也想吃东西，对我来说，再也没有什么事比和女儿一起出去吃午餐更美好的了。但是，我做不到。”
