...indeed TS and it wouldn't surprise me if her decision to go into the house was at least partly for 'self help' reasons and she busies herself focusing on positive things like doing things for others because 'house hostilities' are so very difficult for her..all credit to her because she's obviously a positive person and that's her focus...I just hope she doesn't walk and does manage to raise her self esteem in knowing that she can be in such an uncontrolled environment, uncontrolled by her I mean and 'survive' it.../I think that would be great for her...

Absolutely Ammi, i think she's very brave, i hope she can survive in the house, and agree with TS, it's been well documented regarding her alopecia and anxiety and there should be nothing but love and admiration for her (imo).

By people do you mean me?
Yes I'm aware she has alopecia, my concern is is she strong enough for the big brother environment?

I just mean people in general I guess. I fear she's probably not cut out for BB, and I fear that this should have been obvious given her past. The atmosphere on every single ch5 CBB has been utterly horrible... And has had a bad effect on quite a few who didn't have the psychological background that Gail does.

Once upon a time I'd have said "Oh the producers and psychologists wouldn't have let her go in if they didn't think it was OK" but in the past few years, I think it's been proven conclusively that that just isn't true...

what if she actually does have cancer, but everyone just thinks she has alopecia? that would be very upsetting.

Maybe that's the twist!

"Surprise everyone, Gail has CANCER!"

No. That would just be stupid and distasteful.

I think so too, and however much progress she's made I'd worry this could possibly worsen her anxiety, I actually hope she walks.

I just love her.

As for her doing things for people, I don't think she's being made anyone's slave. Perhaps she actually likes being able to do things and occupy herself?
