An older sister has been diagnosed with the same disease, which some doctors believe is genetic. I don’t believe the state is claiming Munchausen, becuase she is getting worse under their care, but rather that she has a psychiatric disorder and is making herself sick.
I have not seen the claim either but I just got a tiny thought in the back of my head when I read about all the illnesses of their other children. Maybe it was more a passing thought.
After reading more about this situation I am still thinking the State and the Hospital did more than overstep their bounds. I read about the psychiatric aspect and really think that it is a lie used to take control of the little girl. Like all leftists they will not back down or admit they are wrong and would rather the girl die than admit their mistake. Then again, I am inclined to think this is not a mistake and they are using this family to set in place even more draconian State control over family and parental rights.
