She has dispraxia, but she hasn't told anyone in there. It's very hard for her to remember to pick up after herself.

I heard that she has dyspraxia which I understand will make her clumsy - I did't realise this also affects the ability to see the trail of mess she leaves behind. If this is the case then she should tell them as they might be more forgiving. It's all just so complex with Lauren. I think she may also have vitiligo too...there's no end to the complications. Lauren's life is very hard indeed...

I think so. I love that she has kept it to herself. She could have used it to get sympathy, but she didn't.

Not too sure if that's wise though. It might be better to ask for understanding - if they knew they might be able to understand and make allowances for her dyspraxia.

To be honest I don't think any of them have gone in there to try and make allowances for or understand Lauren. I am starting to think that this prog might be the worst vehicle Lauren could have used if she wanted to engender understanding and acceptance. It just takes up too much time and as a result other HMs - like Abz for instance lose airtime.

I think she's coping well. I hope she makes the final.
