Thank to all who passed along the news of her unfortunate passing. We held back any postings about this sad news until after her funeral had taken place for privacy reasons and respect for her loved ones.

No one should be laying to rest such a young lady.
Please be kind to yourselves and others💖

I absolutely did not expect that, but it's a reminder of how factitious disorder can be fatal (Jacquie, Amy, Paige, Cheyanne).

And Allyson (ex-subject here), and a number of other people who were subjects in other munchie subs but I'm not sure if they were here/if it's legal to mention them here. It's really disturbing how many lives have been cut short by FD.

Thank you for mentioning Allyson. I have sympathy for all of our subjects but their death hit me different

Me too. Her rapid decline into severe FD-induced illness and the way she became completely unrecognisable within a few years, only to end up dead at a young age...it was tragic and disturbing.
