COVID was such a scary and uncertain time for everyone, including adults, let alone a little girl who was living with a brand new family that she barely knew.
So as a result of her being scared and alone and having to deal with all this change,
She was abused and neglected.
She was stuck in a home with people who were hurting her, neglecting her.
She was locked away in a room, all alone, with nothing and no one.
She was starved.
so of course she started digging through the trash and begging for food maybe even hiding food in her room she was kept from using the bathroom so of course she screamed out and cried to be let out she was locked in a room by herself with nothing to do so of course she moved too much or begged to be let out
she was a little girl who was denied every single basic need for the entire five years she lived with her dad and there was absolutely nothing she could do about it no one checking in on her no one she could confide in because she was stuck in a home all alone with the government telling her that she wasn't allowed to go to school and then even when she was allowed to go back to school
Even the government programs that were designed to check in on her weren't doing that because her family said that she was being homeschooled.
And they just believed her and didn't bother to double check on that.
Nothing was done to help her.
Nothing was done to make sure she was okay.
So she lived five years in absolute darkness.
Hell.
After 911 was finally called, she was transported to the hospital and given treatment, which included being intubated, put on a feeding tube and given nutritional support.
I am very happy to report that unlike so many cases that we cover on this channel,
MG survived and because of that we have a very unique look into this case which is what she had to say and what her behavior was like after all of this happened.
Now, of course, this happened very recently and she is still undergoing treatment.
Again, she was extremely underweight and that kind of malnourishment can't be fixed by just eating a crap ton and gaining weight.
It needs to be done in a very intentional, methodical way.
