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

  • 🔧 At about Midnight EST I am going to completely fuck up the site trying to fix something.
I have a question. So say at least like, ten of those sepsises are real... wouldn't that itself cause some damage? Like maybe it has left her body less capable of handling her munching? Those hospital pictures with oxygen look real enough.

But 93 times?? That's like half her life or something, good gracious
Yeah it's about once a month on average, in the 7-ish years she's claimed to be terminally ill with EDS. Last time she had sepsis, she left the hospital to teach a dance class.
 
I was just about to mention her!
I saw her on an episode of DIY SOS (dailymotion). She claims severe EDS that has caused POTS, GP, MCAS, craniocervical instability, atlantoaxal instability, and "many other comorbidities". She's on TPN, had major spinal surgery last year, claims sitting at 90⁰ caused collapses, is wheelchair-dependent, has had sepsis 93 times, and her family raised more than 160k for treatment that they claim was unavailable in the UK.
This is the sepsis 93 times girl? She was mentioned in passing in this thread before when Paige with her mere sepsis 10 times was brought up.
She's a cheerleader I don't know how to share a video from Facebook to here but there's a video of her cheerleading on her Facebook page. How can someone with spinal issues serious enough to warrant multiple surgeries and EDS lift another person up above their head?

Thank you for that link, I only had a minute to look once the girl mentioned her and couldn't find it myself.
 
Definitely something odd going on with Antonia. I watched the DIY SOS episode and the mom always spent the night with her in hospital, even at the place she said she trusted. It seems like no care is ever good enough, the system is out to get them. They want, want, want.

She is so fragile yet she can lift from her wheelchair for cheer?

How much money have they raised over the years? The house remodel had to be £250,000+ alone.

I failed at attaching a video from December from her FB page. I'll leave that to more experienced kiwis

The cheerleading video is a little unsettling. She could have been replaced with a table, it's just odd.
 
I had a dumb moment I mixed up my munchies. 🤦‍♀️ thank you.

They’re all blending into one Omni-munchie. Soon they will combine to their final form, the Übermunch.

What’s with these girls convincing hospitals in UK/Aus/NZ to let them live there for months or years? I never hear of that happening here.

In the US they would end up in a nursing home and that is not what they want.

The doctors did question if MBP was an issue early on with Antonia. I bet they still are and that is why a lot of her care has been removed in the UK.
 
edit: it's not broken--the part sticking out is the medial patellofemoral ligament that holds kneecap in place, it' s just sticking out because it's a functioning model. lol the very problem she hashtags is literally right in front of her face and she isn't even aware. Not only is she an idiot, but she's the village idiot.

That’s not the MPFL. It’s the quadriceps tendon. Also, patellofemoral syndrome doesn’t involve the MPFL. It has to do with the cartilage.

Yeah, girl, that totally looks just like you.

I've discovered that generally speaking, the more articles written about them and their super rare disease, the more of a money-grubbing munchie they tend to be. And ooh boy Tonia did not let me down!

There are even more but I'm tired of looking.
 
Lastly another possible faker is Tonia’s journey I haven’t got the time to go through all posts but basically she started to claim cranio instability. The uk said there was nothing wrong (admittedly I have heard of that happening with cci) and so she went to Spain to have an op. She had it blah blah blah but her Facebook is constantly rants by her mother who sounds totally Mbp and enjoying it. She claims she was physically and mentally abused at a hospital and they have recommended she go back there. Apparently the nhs has withdrawn all medications from her taken away seizure meds, stopped feeds even tho she is over weight. Her mother reckons there is a flag on her name to block any kind of treatment for her. She has been to lots of meetings and confirms there is conspiracy against them and bullying being done toward them. I will admit she is currently in the icu in Spain because they somehow sent her back there with some sort of insurance she’s had a surgery and the nhs won’t bring her back. You will have to scroll back quite some to read the story. Usual diagnoses POTS MCAS EDS CCI SAI.

I've come across Tonia before, maybe a news article? Her mother being so involved and making 101 Brave Sick Child fan pages for her was a bit of a red flag for me. I think it's probably a mix of "actually has EDS or something" and "mother freaks out at every cough and also wants the pitybux".


Ahh the "only surgeon in Europe that does cervical fusion" again. Except the NHS does have surgeons trained to do this - it's just a very risky surgery to have if you have a connective tissue disorder so they'll only do it if there is no other option for a patient with EDS/CCI. Wearing a fuckoff great neckbrace isn't comfy or flattering, but it comes with far less risk.

Do you think the dog bite played a role in her death ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BqlbsywI_gM How sad that she just got a handle on her hair routine only to die two or so months later.

None whatsoever, and she has her own thread.

First, welcome.

Second, the novel you wrote about autie is all stuff that has been discussed to death.

Third, if you want us to look into someone, provide receipts or links.
What is the Instagram account of the woman in Kate Farms Shill's avatar? I was on the account earlier and noticed she met "squirmy and grubs." I find them interesting. I was surprised there is no content on them on here. I saw elsewhere that people speculate if it is a financial arrangement and they are not actually a couple or that Hannah has some type of fetish.
Apparently, she saw a documentary about him and sought him out.

As far as I am concerned, if she does, in fact, have a sexual relationship with this man it has to be a fetish.

Speaking of seeking out a specific type of mate I wonder if Judd has found another munchie/depender to put on his Tricare and live in his bathtub free home ?

oooi I love you guys does it scream gypsy rose at you? Your def right about the mother. Also like I said people come to a and e with literally nothing wrong with them and aren’t turned away yet she is which is very interesting. You actually turned over a load of stuff I didn’t know about her ie the diy sos. Then again her mums posts are so boring I do just skim a lot of it.

Edit very interesting it was brought up that the posts only had. Couple of bets. Well who raised all the money then? Surely you’d expect hundreds of supportive comments

2nd edit: I red the second surgery she needs to raise money for is tethered cord syndrome. Now I admit I just googled for info but most of it relates to children being born like this not adults. Can anyone shed anymore light about it?

Thanks for these links. I read through her social media stuff rather than looking for articles and found it difficult to figure out why she went to Spain. I agree with the NHS's decision not to provide the spinal fusion she got, not just in her case (she clearly doesn't have as bad spinal issues as she claims if she's lifting girls over her head on the regular for cheerleading) but in general. Spinal surgeries like this or even less severe ones like for a slipped disk don't fix anything. Once you fuck up your back it stays fucked and you'll always have back pain.

NHS does not even pay for some pretty basic mainstream treatments. They spend less per capita than the US government does on healthcare and it's a fully-funded universal system. If more per capita is spent on government-funded programs in the US than vs. a universal health care system that includes dental then there is something wrong on both ends. The cost of care is extremely marked up in the US and they are cutting corners in a big way in the UK. It also drives me crazy how British people are so insanely proud of the NHS. Then again it seems to be perfectly normal to live in public housing and be on welfare in the UK so it is little wonder they have to be stingy with health care.

So I think cheerleading was a no-go until she had the spinal fusion last year. Before that, they crowdfunded for this type of wheelchair, claiming Antonia was incapable of sitting up without collapsing.

It's only after that surgery that she's been in a "normal" wheelchair and done cheerleading. At one point she was even doing physio to walk!

But then the evil, evil doctors in the UK refused to follow the Spanish hospital's treatment plan, and she deteriorated.
