did anyone watch tlc last night?

About the little girl who had skitz? (sp) I felt so bad for her and her parents, it was heartbreaking to watch. I ended up falling asleep during the second half where they were thinking their son had it too. did they eventually diagnose him too? Those parents are so strong for sticking it out together and helping their children.

  • Was she the same girl who was interviewed by Oprah & whose family has to live in seperate apartments? It's a crazy situation & I commend her parents.

  • My Dad's sister is schizophrenic and it's a horrible thing to watch. I can't imagine watching my child go through that.

    Damnn. 

     

    I missed it again. Ive read Jani's family's blog before they started appearing on TV. It's incredibly interesting to me. I feel so bad for them. I also had thought that Jani was diagnosed early. It makes me sad to think Bodhi would have it too. 

    Have you watched Child of Rage?  

    what's child of rage?

    Its a documentary of a girl who had reactive attachment disorder, before it was commonly diagnosed. She had a lot of issues, stemming from early childhood abuse and neglect. She would hit and molest her brother, kill small animals and craziness.  Don't quote me, but I think they thought she was schitzophrenic, but she wasn't. She was placed in a different home and "rehabbed" out of it. She is now a pediatric nurse.

    It is on YouTube in 2 or the segments. 

    If you liked Jani's story, this one will be interesting. The way she looks in the camera and describes what she does to her brother is chilling. 

    great thanks

    they have since moved back in together after they were able to mostly stabilize her on meds,
