Brother opened a donation account
Just recently, Grahame’s brother opened a donation account for the TV actress. “As some of you may know, Nikki is fighting anorexia,” the website said. “She’s been fighting for most of her life and as you can see Nikki is very bad now so we have to do something quickly.” Treatment in the hospital was unsuccessful. Grahama had been suffering from anorexia since she was eight and wanted to get help in a special clinic.
“She feels trapped and really wants to get well, but feels like it’s impossible. It’s heartbreaking and we desperately just want a healthy Nikki back with us … We want to help save our friend from that this disease conquers them, “declared friends.
