It's the thing that split my family apart.
And I find myself still trying to make sense of memories that don't make any sense.
I'm Andrea Dunlop, host of Nobody Should Believe Me, a new podcast exploring Munchausen by proxy, a form of medical child abuse where a parent fabricates, exaggerates, or induces illness in their child.
I explore the story of Hope Yabara, a mom of three from Texas who was convicted of medical child abuse and spent 10 years in prison.
She was so trustworthy and so dependable, you know, in her everyday life.
She worked, she took care of her kids.
You could rely on her.
Why would we not rely on her to tell us the truth?
This involves a medical environment and it involves children in most cases, and it is irrefutably a form of abuse.
I really wanted to meet Hope because she was the only person who could give me the answers I was looking for.
She was my baby girl, and I have so much regret for hurting her.
I love my family, especially my children, more than anything on this planet.
Regardless of what I've done and the choices that I've made.
One of the things I've really wrestled with in this podcast is this hope that I'll do this and that she'll hear it and say,
I'm exhausted.
I want to come home.
Help me come home.
