Attention whoring is not an uncommon thing. I would be rich if I get a rupee every time somebody lies on the internet for attention This monster on the other hand was not just attention whoring. She misled and encouraged cancer patients into giving up conventional treatments in favor of organic food and snake oil treatments. When a family with a 10 year old kid with brain cancer got in touch with her, she got close to them and probed them for information just so she could use it for her own faking. She frigging wrote books and profited of it. Now, when she got caught, she is playing the victim and has the audacity to blame the people who fell for her stories, for causing her mental anguish because she cheated them.
Cancer is one of those diseases that is not always fatal in all its forms and can be treated if medical attention is provided in time. Delay it and it will spread and manifest into a condition that is incurable and terminal. Who knows how many treatable cancer patients went to the grave because of her. She may not have brain cancer, but her entire self is a cancer.
