did any1 c this?

I meant 2 post this b4 it came on 8pm ITV but forgot

It looked so painful - for those who didnt watch it, it was about kids born with a disorder where their skin grows as fast as ours would in 14 days, in just 1 nite. the only way they survived was by their mum scrubbing & creaming them everyday

I found it so hard 2 keep the tears back especially wen they showed them just born

I missed this as I was away for driving lesson and came home and made dinner.  I saw the girls on GMTV this morning though.   I thought it was really sad, but theyre 2 happy girls, it seemed to be from what I saw on GMTV.

I totally admire the mother and father.  They seemed great people.

I wish I saw the documentary though.

aww Lorna its a pity u missed it, it was very interesting

im guessing u saw the 2 older girls but theres another british family with 2 younger girls, 1s only a baby & i found it so hard 2 watch

At least the older 1s understand wots going on (although they obviously hav been the same since birth) it just seemed so harsh wot the mum had 2 do 2 the poor los everyday

I'll never complain about putting ryans excema cream on & bathing him every day again
