I do remember the case, but don’t think I read the book about it. There was another similar one that was more recent than that (but not “recently” as in “lately”) with 4-5 kids and SIDS deaths.
Seems like once a month or so we hear about someone faking their child’s cancer to get money - or sympathy or attention. Oh, that one woman recently (as in “lately”) who had her child fake being retarded for years and years! That was ghastly.
There was one person who wrote about this ANS saga when HKS was still holding the baby for ransom and said that Howie reminded him of those women who cut the babies out of pregnant women’s bodies to keep them as their own.
When the Munchausen Dx just hit me like a ton of bricks the other day, I remembered what that guy had written - and noted how much HKS’s “activities” are more like things that historically, more women have perpetrated than men have.
I wonder if I can find some notes on that ANS Show episode where his parents allegedly told the world about his, umm, testosterone problem.
You are so right! When I think about it now, it seems almost ‘eerie’! HKS was ALWAYS the one trying to ‘protect’ Anna, and he was always the one to ANNOUNCE if anything was going on with her, and HOW everything should be interpreted!! Just think how long it took for her ‘pregnancy’ to be announced! HKS went back and forth about it and finally ANNA herself announced it on her website (via webcam without HKS present), then HKS ‘announced it officially’!! I still think that HKS was hoping for another ‘miscarriage’ since it’s been reported that he doesn’t even like children, and even a new born child would be a threat or a ‘rival’ to him.
So RTE, with that thought in mind, I think that YOU may have discovered YET another type of psychopath! Yes, Munchausen by Proxy could most definitely apply, considering the relationships with HKS, Anna, and Daniel. BUT, I think “Munchausen-In-Vitro by Proxy” is also relevent in HKS’s case! So, in my very humble opinion, you have discovered yet another psychological ‘disorder’. It is now deemed “Munchausen-In-Vitro by Proxy” or MIVP bc that applies to HKS as well! Good job, Rte!
I’m sending a copy of this post to the AMA, so they may be contacting you for interviews! Although in my opinion, you should not wait for them to contact you for your very obvious accomplishments. Hopefully, they will be ‘reeling’ from reading about all of the absolutely, un-freaking-believable actions of one Dr. K. EROSHEVICH of Studio City, California.
WELL... We all can DREAM! Can’t we??!!
Was reading the link at artharris. Wonder why HKS can file probate on a will in the Bahamas. Wouldn’t an executor just file either where she died. Why in California? I think it is because he knows that the Bahamas probably woldn’t give him rights as administrator.
