My husband's ex fakes illnesses that are "chronic" but never defined. She started projecting these illnesses onto their daughter when she was 15. My husband tried to intervene but the mother told the daughter that he had no worries that the poor daughter might DIE if untreated. Six years later the daughter and mother both have immunity deficiencies, liver toxicity, mucus issues, lymph node issues, back issues, exhuastion and anyting else their naturopath will prescribe herbs and asthma meds. Mind you they BOTH ride motorcycles, hike, camp, etc. They use the illnesses to get sympathy. The mother even worked at a naturopathy school but had to leave with allergies to their new carpet. The mother will also use any doctor that a boss of hers has visited. They doctor shop and refuse to go to "mainstream" docs - who have said nothing was wrong. It is a terrible situation but when someone has munchausen there is no stopping them. My husband had half legal custody and demanded to talk to docs before his daughter say them and the mother went behind his back. She's also cancelled appointments back in the day and told the daughter her father was using medical issues to "get back" at them. It's insane. Right now she is suing yet again - and we have a lot of her medical receipts...colon cleansing, coffee enema, herbs, chiropractor, accupuncture, massage, etc. Many repeat visits to docs in the same week. I'm rambling, but there isn't much one can do.
