In the first half of our discussion of Factitious Disorder, we will cover DeeDee Blancharde & her daughter Gypsy Rose, who sought freedom from her mother’s Factitious Disorder with the most extreme method possible. Also we will discuss the Wilfred family, who were shocked when a faked pregnancy lead to the discovery that the mother Leslie was both making her children ill & flat out lying about their conditions.
WARNING: This episode contains crimes perpetrated against children. In both cases, mothers seek attention with false claims that their children are sick, or causing illness in their own children. SPOILER: All the children survive, but some may find the stories difficult to listen to. Listener discretion is advised.
