[Romantic Old Bird]

OK, I have witnesses many asthma attacks in my life professionally, and believe me, this was NOT an Asthma attack.

If it was anything at all, it was hyperventilation. This is what a lot of young people (often 13-16, normally girls) when they get anxious about something - like a broken nail, or someone looking at them 'funny'.

In my opinion it was completely fabricated. It reminded me more than anything of the sort of presentation we see by chronic A&E attenders, 'factitious' illness or Munchausen Syndrome.

I.E. She put it on!!!! I am convinced of this by the amount of times she has rationalised and talked about it.

It was TERRIFICALLY unconvincing.

She tells porkies, and exaggerates all the time.

Whatever else, it was bloody convenient.
