Hey, this podcast is not kid-friendly.

So if you don't want your kid to hear about sex and the word shit and all that other stuff,

you should probably get them out of the room right now.

Everybody has a secret. This is Beyond the Secret, an anonymous podcast where I uncover the truth

behind people's deepest secrets. My name is Ace Fanning and I want to know

what's your secret?

Welcome back to another week of Beyond the Secret. Now in case you somehow missed it

this is part two of my mom has Munchhausen. So please make sure that you go back and listen to

part one because in part one we kind of just scratch the surface but in part

two we're really diving in and there are parts of this interview that just break my heart and

there are parts of this interview that give me some hope and I'm really honored that I get to share this with you guys.

Now I'm not going to waste you guys this time because this is a very long episode and I want to make sure that you hear all of it.

So here we go.

Going back a little bit, kind of give me a rundown after asthma. Like obviously, I mean you had asthma forever until you got pregnant but or had asthma what other things came up for you. I know you said

our tonsils removed and according to my aunt who is probably like the closest mother

figure in my life like my sister and I weren't really even sick like she had told the

doctor like oh they've gone to urgent care so many times six times this month for tonsilitis like they just can't get over it oh it's another

like they've been sick all year long and like we actually had never even been sick. I remember her telling my dad like the

the doctors suggesting that the kids have their tonsils removed just to prevent any sort of

further issue.
