My understanding is that there are two kinds - one is Munchausen, which is where a person constantly seeks out medical attention for themselves, for illnesses sometimes self-inflicted, in order to get attention, and the other is Muchausen by proxy, where a mother (usually?) seeks out medical attention for their child, often as a result of the mother making the child ill in order to get attention. I may not have explained that right, but I think I have the general idea.

> Deneb why do you think it's about you? I seen numberous shows of Mothers bringing their children into hospitals saying they were ill and meanwhile they were making their children ill. Love Phillipa ps are there two kinds?
