Medicine Question

I need this answered.

All my sister has been eating lately are saltines and soup, and she's been sleeping an awful lot lately.

Is she anorexic?

If she is, what do i do?

She might be. But it could be something else too. Something just as bad, like an intestinal worm. Anyway, you should tell your parents that you're worried about your sister. They'll know what to do. And don't feel like you're betraying her or something like that, because this is serious, she might even thank you some day.
Hope everything is going to be okay :)

Maybe you don't need this answer any more, but I'm still answering.
I'm not sure whether it is anorexia, but it sounds like that. Anorexia is more of a mental state when the person feels that any food going inside their body will make them fat, and like that. It's best to take counselling and guidance from a dietitian on how to increase the consumption of food in your sisters diet.
