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

[Maxie]

Clicked on an article and who is looking back at me but a blast from the past Ophelia Brown. Good old Canadian munchie who doesn't understand the R in CRPS stands for REGIONAL not the entire fucking body. Apparently she wants to end it but the mean doctors don't agree because of course her case is so complex. So now she is going off tube feeds and will starve to death...or not, because we all know how fickle our munchies are. Interesting enough the last I knew she was claiming trans nonbinary yet the article refers to her as she. She is also using a computerized voice to talk in the articles video because of course her CRPS must have spread to her vocal cords too.

Ottawa woman with rare pain disorder denied medically assisted death

Ophelia Brown and her family have been turned away after months of fighting for access to medical assistance in dying.

If you are not familiar with her she became a subject her around late summer 2019, around page 235 here if you want to look back. Otherwise this five year old article gives her early history with her super special pain disorder and problems getting treatment of course.

Adami: Teen in constant agony awaits word from Ottawa Hospital on doctors' referrals

The nightmare started hours after nine-year-old Ophelia Brown had gone to bed on Halloween 2007, following an evening of trick-or-treating.

She even went viral for a tweet against Kylie Jenner bitching about her using a wheelchair as a prop.

I haven't kept up with Laura, how does she pay for her care & prescriptions?

Not to dwell on the SS point, but the provider(s) who know she's on Amitryptiline would be looking for symptoms of overdose or adverse reactions even if it were the only thing she were on.
It's also known to cause POTS-like symptoms and peripheral neuropathy.

Any word on JanJan and Professor Poop’s baby? I ain’t gonna pay to see their Patreon post.

 

[Redbottombaby94]

Ha, I'm surprised The Dirty is still up and running, I forgot all about that site.

Unfortunately all the good material was from years ago, from looking at it now it's all tiktokers and influencers.

What is The Dirty?

 

[Dovahshit]

You keep my child out of this thread you piece of shit.

i dont even know who the fuck you are to begin with,
why come here?

 

[FarmerKhourtney]

What a strange way to announce the life altering birth of a child. Lol. As usual it’s always about them.

Surprised nobody mentioned Janiece pushed out her crotch goblin yet.

The best part about it is the fact that her Patreon post about it literally is titled "Surgery Day." Surgery day.

She does it with the combination of having a upper middle class dad while simultaneously having Medicaid.

A doctor can be private pay but Medicaid can cover medications (usually depending on how wild it is), plus whatever doesn’t get covered by Medicaid is paid by her dad.

Pretty sure she’s 31 or 32, but someone has to bankroll the munchie lifestyle and she has many men, but absolutely no lasting relationships.

Just checked on her to see how the rage fit is going and wow. Someone had to go to medical school and complete a residency to deal with this histrionic woman child.
Pour one out for Dr M.

Whew she is ramping up, sounds like she’s due for another adrenal crisis because she’s homicidal and fighting with her doctors through Mychart and blowing up some poor caseworker about her precious EBT benefits that she needs so desperately compared to other people in the city.
I never thought those people got paid enough but Caseworker Walls has really confirmed that.

The email subject from Walls refers to a compliance form, then in the text says she's been referred to the ABAWD unit. That's able bodied adults without dependents.

There are 80 hr/month work requirements for ABAWDs to get SNAP for more than 3 months in 3 years (the time limit).

Caseworkers HAAATE ABAWD because they should be, you know, fucking working. Laura was probably too high on her percies to submit the forms, or didn't work enough. Her fucking fault.

If there’s anyone in the history of the world that should NOT have a child, it’s JanJan & Paul. Here’s hoping she doesn’t go MBP on it…although she strikes me as more of a grifter than a munchie.

The cunt she's referring to is herself, I presume?

All the feels for Dr. M.
Typical munchie shit, but it's clear she loves to self medicate - sorry, "experiment" - for desired symptoms and reactions.
All those CNS stimulants and depressants.
I would love to see her liver after a few years.

My only thought on payment was that someone on that end might flag it, but .

Dr. M is aiming to fire her, nicely. Calling Laura's bluff about the ER, and recommending local docs for all that totally NECESSARY frequent management. BTW, Cleveland Clinic is *2.5 hrs away*.

The two major systems in her area, OhioHealth and OSU, she has been fired from. So next? Dayton? Cincinnati?

Ophelia was posting about this on tumblr before the article got published and decided to put the post about how she intends to starve to death in the cottagecore tag of all things

She also made this post where she states that doctors believed for 3 years that she was faking her illness

Maybe your drs wont assist you because you're fine.

 

[Logical Fallacies]

Will you look at that passive-aggressive narc smile?

I am not an expert but judging by what I have seen about CRPS in medical documentaries this is the most chipper and healthy looking sufferer of CRPS I have ever seen.

Also, she can't get suicide via medical assistance cause she is physically healthy and also, she doesn't want to die. If she really wanted to die she would just kill herself. This is just some kind of suicide baiting and by the looks of it she trained her moronic parents very well or maybe they just want to be free of her.

Yeah, this is least “in pain” I’ve ever seen a CRPS sufferer look.
And by posting in the cottagecore and naturecore hashtags, you know she’s just doing this shit for attention. The local media has really picked up on it and it’s feeding her narcissism.

Ophelia looks like a Tim Heidecker character

It must be quite difficult to deliberately starve yourself to death. Anas take years to do it and then have a heart attack or organ failure. At some point instinct is going to kick in if and you're not immobile in a bed dying of cancer i.e. the person who assisted dying is intended to help, you're going to eat food. Or put the toob back.

It can takes a hell of a long time to starve to death (example, Terri Schiavo), and that involves not taking anything into your body-no food, no water, no nothing. It’d be torture for a conscious person, which is typically why this only happens with people like end-stage cancer patients who are too narc’d up to be aware of it.

(Also, I call bullshit that she’s on hospice. Hospice care in Canada in underfunded and overwhelmed on a good day. Now couple in COVID, and there’s no way they’re wasting their limited resources on her.)

 

[the prednisone plug]

Sorry in advance if I'm late to the party on this. I was doing some research on the munchie's fav surgeons who provide these bullshit procedures to basically anyone with cash, like Dr Henderson and Dr Gilete. Would this be the place, and would anyone be interested, if I did a dump on the information I've found? I know they get mentioned here and there on this thread, but due to NDAs and some other factors it's not super easy to find a comprehensive overview of their quackery.
