TV3’s award-winning documentary series Inside New Zealand returns to our screens tonight.

Five-year-old Charlotte Cleverly-Bisman is the youngest quadruple amputee in New Zealand.

At six months of age she contracted meningococcal septicaemia and the infection claimed her arms and legs.

Her story became front page news and her battle was captured in the TV3 documentary Baby Charlotte.

Following on from this comes Charlotte: A Life Without Limbs. The sequel reveals the struggles faced by Charlotte and her parents as she tries to be a typical toddler.

I just watched this documentary on foxtel's bio and this little angel and her family would have to be the most inspirationsl people I have ever witnessed. The whole time I cried and that little princess just laughed and smiled and played like she didnt have a care in the world. To the parenst, you are absolutely remarkable people who now i strive to b like. Watching that story I hugged my 15mnth old daughter so tight, i swear she couldnt breath but at that moment i realised just how lucky I am. All I can say from us here in Aussie, may god bless you, take care of Charlotte, parents and other 2 daughters and THANK YOU for sharing ur story with us, it was truly an eye opener

I agree with you Suze. The parents are doing incredibly well in very tough circumstances. Full credit to them and I hope they are getting financial support from the government.

Whatever the consequences, I praise the parents for keeping it together. Easy to walk away from something as challenging as that. Well done to the Mother and Father for supporting each other. Yay.
