Community Munchausen's by Internet (Malingerers, Munchies, Spoonies, etc) - Feigning Illnesses for Attention

Jesus. Stop lusting after the organs of deceased people and let them go to people who actually want to live.

Organ Lust would be one hell of a band name.

So, I was put on this lady (I think) because I had been following a similar case in the Tard Baby thread but I think it's probably a better overall fit here and I cannot get this woman out of my mind. I've never tried to complete a write up on anyone but I thought I'd try an introduction for those who might be interested.

View attachment 3504658

Dre McCray (35 years old) was a MLM shill on Facebook for many years while livestreaming portions of her life to half a million followers. She is married to a young (late 20s) veteran (discharged due to a knee injury) and they have three kids (two are hers from a previous relationship). She is also an ex-communicated Jehovah's Witness. Her scam was/is (more on this..) selling $5.00 jewelry through Paparazzi.

So why am I bringing her to this threads attention?

In 2017ish, Dre began claiming a number of issues causing her pain such a fibromyalgia and RA. Her husband seemed to suffer from lingering injuries from his time in service as well as "emotional issues". At some point one of her followers suggests that she try kratom. She also starts taking valerian root and passionflower in huge doses. However, she also begins feeding her husband large doses of all three of these as well as other random herbal remedies.

In 2019, her husband develops severe seizures. She had convinced her husband that pharmaceuticals and hospitals are bad and they will only go for "life threatening emergencies". Her husband begins suffering multiple seizures a day while giving him massive doses of kratom and claiming he has developed seizures because of his childhood trauma that he bottled up inside due to him calling out for his parents after one of his seizures in a rare hospital visit.

She continues to live stream a lot of this,including fights with her husband, talking about the special teas she gives to her children (who also have now suffered from seizures) in between shilling her cheap jewelry. You'll notice she's lost a massive amount of weight and is pretty sickly thin now as well. There are videos (unfortunately) of her husband having these seizures as she stuffs kratom and valerian root into his mouth while repeating the lords prayer (it's as fucked up as it sounds).

Fast forward to May of this year and she tells her followers her husband is in the hospital in a coma. She does not provide immediate details as to why he's in the hospital but that the doctors have declared him brain dead (this is how I found this whole situation in relation to the tard baby thread) . She does not believe he's brain dead and that his brain will heal and he will recover. She does not tell his parents who find out over social media. They fly across the country to see their son in hospital and on livestream she refuses to let them into the room and argues with hospital staff for them to be removed because they said mean things about her online (pretty much a direct quote).

The police report is then leaked and it turns out her husband hung himself in a shed in the backyard immediately following an argument with Dre. In the report it mentions she gave him a tea and that he left to calm down. She checked on him 30 minutes later and found him hanging in the shed.

She has now also livestreamed multiple times from the hospital room with his dead body, singing to him and shilling her $5.00 jewelry to her followers.

I think in the past three weeks, this story had broken from the MLM groups into wider interest as I initially found an introduction through CC Suarez, who covered her previously regarding her MLM practices.

Theres honestly SO MUCH material I cannot possibly bring it all to you in a post so here's a few links to videos that have already collected a lot of her clips. People believe she has MBP'd her husband and she has children she's doing it to as well. I know it's not the usual kind of person posted here but ... someone besides me really should see this.

MLM-related coverage

Deep dive with lots of livestream clips

I randomly saw the video in Facebook of a hospital argument of hers and people in the comments flooding it saying she caused it. It finally makes sense. I hope CPS is called.

Alexandra has made yet another appearance on the British Medical Association news page.

This time it's written by a journalist with a special interest in health but no medical background, so it explains how calling EDS sooper rare slipped by. Otherwise the whole article is boring inspiration drivel and doesn't particularly add anything new, except reminding people she existed and that she is once again asking for your money to buy hospitals pianos.

I swear, inspiration porn/drivel is the most annoying thing. Everyone says the same things with the same buzz words and it's always a whole lot of words to say not very much. Dealing with most chronic illnesses doesn't make you brave. Most people have no choice and simply go about their lives as best they can. I don't get why people seem to lap it up like it's meaningful or insightful. Half the time these people are spitting out ice cream koans.

What happens when a munchie tries to pretend she's on chemo (again) but people are still angry that she exposed an infusion center to covid?

Change the caption and start posting about your period again because you know it gets you attention!

Spoiler: Every ovulation counts.

She sounds like a fundie woman and I'm looking forward to that season of her life.

Edit: I almost forgot, the entire reason I made this post.

I'm genuinely wondering if she's an elaborate troll, or if she is just an empty mentally ill woman with nothing else going for her. She's busy loving her womb space tulip emoji. This reads like a copypasta that people forgot about after a month. This is the wrong app for touching your yoni, how about onlyfans? Do fish have vulvas?

I like how she says “right now, I’m in my winter phase. I’m hibernating”. Bitch, please. You are literally always hibernating.

It especially sucks because normal disabled people have worked really hard to fight against "inspiration porn". These munchies are really making it more difficult for people with legitimate disability to be taken seriously by society.

 

[clockwomble]

I have zero idea how the process works but the "back up" and than suddenly "first" seems bizarre to me. Also I have always been under the impression that you have to be an hour from the hospital.

Because I was bored and also curious about why a back up person would be called for an organ (or I guess set of organs? Would a single organ recipient get priority over a multiple? No clue.), doctor google says here backup people/backup offers can be called/made to make sure it doesn’t go to waste. Ok, that’s cool, and makes sense though it’s got to suck to get a call and then a “sorry, you’re the side chick”. No clue about time parameters from hospital, don’t know where she’s listed or if it’s at all related to whatever organ it might be, that document is long from UNOS/OPTN with more info than I care to go through or understand. Munching aside, it’s been an interesting read on how it all works - I knew it was highly involved, but it’s definitely far more complicated than I imagined.

I’m sorry, outside of the “oh thank god I was just late not knocked up” I have never known a woman to be…excited about a period and giving it a personality (well other than cursing it) and “nurturing” it. How does one nurture shedding uterine lining, a (literal) coming out party? If we hear about kitty steaming next I’m done.

Edit: sorry re double post. I’m dumb.

Unsure if there's a current death pool, but if there is I have my contribution.

Dani, who puts shit on her central line and has the most horrifying bathroom, is looking and acting worse than ever. She looks like a drug addict and twice her real age (36).

She reminds me of Jaquie shortly before her death in the way that she seems to be spiraling. If the munching doesn't kill her, driving under the influence will. Yes, she knows how to drive and does it on that cocktail.

I have a video of Alexandra's interview but I want to write a transcript down for it and I've been putting that off, but I'll try to get that done soon.

Dani has been a strong contender in the death pool for quite some time. Paige seems like an obvious choice but she's been "dying" for years. Paige will outlive many munchies, she's got that cockroach immunity. Everyone thought Kat would be gone by now too but I'm not convinced. I think the winner is going to come as a surprise from someone such as Dani.

In the future you might not want to chase people off with the Kiwi autism shit so quickly though. You never know what kind of details they may be privy to and could have given you.

It's really strange to bring up autism as a negative thing, only to make possibly the single most autistic post that has ever existed on the internet. This is the first time in my life I've felt physical cringe, so thank you for that I guess..

Please tell me what city you think you work in so I can make sure if I'm ever hurt I can just kill myself so I don't risk getting infected but such pure, concentrated faggotry

I bet when she drives, it looks like that Snoop Dog video with the flying car.

cue the hand wringers on illnessfakers professing their concern and sympathy for this greasy retard.

I am concerned, in the same way that I am for Staphy Cianfriglia, or the delayed munchie who fucked herself up. Dani is incapable of taking care of herself, or she is capable but has such disregard for her wellbeing that she chooses to let herself live in total filth. Both are pretty bad.

She did all this to herself, and she seems like a completely self centered cunt, but I honestly think she could maybe get better if she was in a mental health group home of some kind and getting intensive therapy. Or maybe not by now, but a few years ago she could've. She should still take a shower and get someone nice to help her pick age appropriate clothing.

The only other place I've seen this "celebrate your period returning" type thing was in the type of eating disorder recovery centers you pay for out of pocket.

At least there, celebrating your period coming back is supposed to help you deal with your painful emotions, especially if there is an extra hurdle to dealing with that like being more comfortable without one due to severe sexual abuse.

(Even there, it's not turned into a multiple day long celebration of one particular menstrual cycle.)
I hope she starts making potato print style artistic works of her crotch area (*), next.

Spoiler

* truly witnessed this celebration.

I don't think I've ever seen actual disabled people following inspiration porn like munchies do. It's such masturbatory bullshit and makes real disabled people feel like they're not doing enough. The last thing they need is to shame themselves because they can't spend a week at Disney or go hiking with their friends/family whenever they like. Like you said, it's harmful. It's essentially toxic positivity.

Muchies are so busy circle-jerking and furiously fapping to their self-produced inspiration porn that they have no idea how completely unlike a regular disabled person they sound.

She has the same bloated abdomen Jacquie was sporting in one of her last hospital vlogs before she croaked. Probably another case of "unnecessary tube coiling on intestines".

I don't know how anyone could express genuine sympathy for this moron, with her history and past self NG insertions without medical necessity. Pretty bummed she didn't perform her own toob surgery since she loves causing infections.

I don't know that she's spiralling. She's been like this since they pulled her TPN. But she also seems to be working and has not been in hospital for a while. I guess she is maybe having some kind of psychiatric intervention?

I loved fat, sad-face Allison and her tumblr adventures.
She had it all. The manipulation of her definitely autistic boyfriend/roommate, her doordashing Starbucks drinks that even Chantal would complain were too sweet.
Not to mention her videos of her in her ‘stimming corner’ where she’s be flapping and rocking with greasy af hair, a weighted blanket, and drooling on a chew toy. Her reviews of psychiatric hospitals across North America were always entertaining.

Ashley doesn’t hold a candle to Alison’s antics.
