How do you know this about her?

Like me with the pots and the hoovering.

I agree, but im hoping she changes her ways very soon, and its a CONDITION not a disability

[Alf]

We'll find out tonight if Anne is a sinker or swimmer, this trial will either make or break her.

[Crimson Dynamo]

Problem is its a spectrum we are all on but when you say the word people just think of the extremes and i guess if it gets her attention and special treatment she may milk this to her benefit?

That is the worry

[Crimson Dynamo]

Maybe this trial tonight will be the making of her, lets wait and see how she goes

I completely agree. Whilst she seems a lovely interesting lady..she doesn't look like she is up to much in camp. The bushtucker trial yesterday was basically a single handed job by Fleur and after emptying a few buckets Anne was knackered... it wasn't even too physical.
I think at the moment they are all loving looking after her...it also makes them look good (even if im being cynical)...but it will soon start to wear thin and their tolerance will be tested.

That's what you'd expect a women of her age who's extremely overweight ( unhealthily so ).. given the hot ,humid conditions and her lack of food and sleep

If I’m honest Niamh, I do not understand how comments about how autism isn’t a disability, about how people with autism just ‘want special treatment’ and people without the illness telling people how the process is are on topic, but my comments were not.

And on the topic, I think what Anne is doing is amazing, she is giving awareness to 11 million viewers on national television every night, I will be supporting her all the way for doing this.

Isnt she just doing it for the money, they asked her and not the other way around?

Harry isnt doing this for people with no smell or people who survived horrific car crashes

Regardless of money, she is still bringing awareness to an issue that the general public generally don’t know much about, it’s helping tonnes and hopefully will help people out there.

well I think she’s doing really well

We dont watch any tv show for someone to push their condition or anything else down our necks

Certainly not you, it seems.

A touch of empathy would not go amiss tbh, try putting yourself in someone else's shoes for once.
