Last October, a faulty gas line caused an explosion in a Harlem apartment building. The explosion killed a woman and severely burned her four daughters, who have been in hospital burn units. Yesterday, six-year-ld Duaa Al Ghaithi was the last of the girls to return home, after many months of rehab (she will need many more years of therapy). According to NY1, she "wears a head-to-toe compression garment 23 hours a day" which also includes gloves. Duaa's vocal chords were also damaged, but she said, "I'm a female spiderman." Her family has sued the building's owner and Con Ed; apparently there had been complaints about the smell of gas, but the smell was later masked by fresh paint.

Someone call Toby Maguire's agent. This kid deserves a visit.
I know--she is so brave! To be that young and to need so much care...it's sad, but she seems to have a great spirit.
What a life she's had / will have for a few years yet. Good luck to her!
Great idea 'bout Toby!

"Con Ed has denied responsibility"
And in even more surprising news, the Sun rose in the east this morning.
>Her family has sued the building's owner and Con Ed; apparently >there had been complaints about the smell of gas, but the smell >was later masked by fresh paint.
A billion dollar company doesn't possess a trace-gas detector or something more sophisticated then "...doesn't smell like gas to me..."???? That's somewhat disturbing. Or else Con Ed is full of sh*it and attempting to cover their ass, which is more likely.
