>Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy.

If any of you are into sort of gruesome mystery stories, Patricia Cornwell wrote one of her forensic medicine novels about Munchausen's by proxy. Yes, weird. We've had three or four cases of it here in Colorado in the last year or so. In one of them, a hospital suspected there was a problem with one of their child patients and put in a surveillance camera. They caught the mother holding a pillow over her own child's face and partially smothering her.
