Guardians of the People: The medical battles of Niola Flanders

For 13 years Niola Flanders has known nothing but pain and misery. The 43-year-old Palo Seco woman is relentlessly tormented by the anguish brought on by three medical conditions, one of which is causing large and painful open sores on her hand forcing doctors to remove layers of her skin. In this episode of Guardians of the People, this resilient mother of three tells us she needs a medical procedure that will not offer a cure but rather ease her suffering. [Even though we have censored her skin disorder, viewer discretion is still advised.]
