    I knew her in real life. Met her when Harlow was 3/4 months old. Trained with her and was friends for a bit. When I met her she said she had narcolepsy. Thazzit. Hung out with Janice and Orion too. Janice also said narcolepsy and potentially going deaf..we fell out shortly before she got the feeding tube and before the wheelchairs showed up..she’s better than Janice BY FAR but still they’re not great people overall and I’ll leave it at that.

      I also suffer from chronic illnesses and I did follow her when she was alive. I was very sad when she died.
      I don't understand why people were so awful to her. I also don't understand why people were so invested in bringing her down. She was in the hospital so many times. Do people think people want to be in the hospital. It sucks! I don't understand why they cared so much. They should just ignore her videos if they thinking she is faking it!

    Thanks for helping spread the word about the illness fakers community because for those of us with real chronic illness like myself I have gastropraesis and hypoglycemia and I was born with cerebral palsy. I also have POTs its all diagnosis later in life for me as well but I have had symptoms since I hit my teen years its just the technology was not that good back then. But thanks so much for helping the community.

    I'm always fascinated by Illness Fakers content. I knew someone who had Munchausens, we were very close friends since we were kids. She was always prone to exaggerating minor injuries and colds and stuff, but when I was diagnosed with my chronic illness, it was like her Munchausens went full blown. I eventually had to distance myself because I realized that spending time with people who are actually ill seemed to be a trigger for her, like it made it worse. I realize that it's a mental illness so I try not to be too harsh about it.

      Since becoming disabled (selfish driver) I've encountered REAL anger from a now-former "close friend" who kept getting jealous, upset, and competitive when my disability couldn't be ignored.
      She always had something worse wrong with her and wanted to argue/tell myself or others that I was faking.
      eg, if someone asked on my facebook how I'm recovering from spinal Fusion... she'd comment something the the effect of "other people have problems too!" and reply with a picture of her bad sunburn.
      I could go on... So manipulative and disturbing.

    Jaquie changed my life! I have been chronically ill since October 2012, she was the first chronic illness youtuber I followed, I loved her content, I was subscribed to her and even become a patron! I was in the midst trying to get a diagnose of my stomach problem and she told me to keep fighting for an answer and because of her I GOT DIAGNOSED! I now ALWAYS say positivity is the way forward in life it's something like she said but its something I stand by now! When she passed away I was heartbroken and reading online what they said about her husband. She did NOT deserve the hate she got she was SUCH A GOOD PERSON! I used to spread awareness and share my journey on my IG and one woman "claiming" to be chronically ill was stealing my content by rewording my posts and posting them on hers I have since stopped and this woman closed down her IG after people called her out for faking turns out she actually was which is sickening!. RIP Jaquie you are deeply missed :(

    I feel she needed mental health help as much as anything.
