I’ve likened her to Brittani Boren Leach in the past. Grecian gets off on the attention and sympathy of having sick kids and now one with a disability diagnosed and possibly more diagnoses coming. She
bleeping loves it. She loves that she can turn it into free things for her and the kids, and get brand deals, and get fawning messages and comments about how strong and amazing she is. I will not be surprised if Grecian ends up diagnosed with a personality disorder or munchausen by proxy. I truly hope someone involved in Riley’s care reports her to child services (idk what it’s called in WA). She should have taken her to get help within a day of not eating or drinking, not “a few days” later when it was already dangerous. She could have fallen into a coma for crying out loud. Ketoacidosis is life threatening. I
bleeping hate this woman so much. That poor poor child.
“Ketoacidosis is a metabolic state associated with high levels of ketones in the blood. Ketones build up when the body breaks down fatty acids to use for energy in place of carbohydrate.
Starvation ketoacidosis occurs when the body has not received enough glucose as its primary energy source for a prolonged period.”
“
In starvation ketoacidosis, once the body has run out of large, it starts to break down muscle, which releases amino acids and lactate into a person’s blood. The liver then breaks these down into sugars to use for fuel.”
*note it takes about 12-14 hours of fasting to enter ketosis which comes before ketoacidosis.
“The transition from ketosis to ketoacidosis can occur after 2-3 days of fasting. After a couple more days, the breakdown of muscle may begin.”
Starvation ketoacidosis happens when a person has fasted for an extended period, and their body begins to break down muscle to use as fuel. Learn more.
