That's amazing....but I still can't believe that she's left with all those medical bills. Hopefully the website will raise enough money.

Well, there is the matter of how the house caught on fire. If she wasn't at fault for that, then yes.

What I was thinking. If it was her fault and she didn't save the kid, the consequences of living with that would be worse than burnt feet.

I don't want to make this political but it's a shame that she doesn't have health insurance.

"Myatt doesn't have health insurance and isn't sure how she will pay for the burn treatment she needs, which may include skin grafts on her feet."

Anyway, she is a very brave woman. Hopefully things will work out for her.

"Myatt doesn't have health insurance and isn't sure how she will pay for the burn treatment she needs, which may include skin grafts on her feet.

NowTonicwants to raise money for the woman it calls the real Super Nanny. The site has pledged $20,000 and is asking readers to chip in $10 each to help Myatt with her medical expenses."

Hey conservatives, our healthcare system is SOOOOO great isn't it? Yep, we don't need universal healthcare or reform at all. Nope, not when our heros are treated like that!

Wait she can't pay the bills? What about the parents of the kid? They should offer to pay since she did save their child.

To be fair the fire did start on her watch which suggests that she probably had something to do with it in the first place.

I'm sort of neutral on this subject. It's great she saved a child, but what if she was the one who started it? She was the one who put the child in danger in the first place. If she didn't start the fire, then she's a nice person. :P

That's no way to walk across a fire. You have to do it slowly but briskly to avoid putting pressure on your feet.

Look at the NBC video all the way at the bottom. The woman in that video is the one who ran through the fire and flames to save the child

Your saying it as if she purposely started the fire to kill the child... Even so if she did start it she put it out and didn't know it was still there.
