Ariella Broughton It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Tayyab Torres Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Staci Frederick Blistering performances.

manderzzXOheartsnickj This was a great documentary i was flipping around in the "on demand doc." section and i found it checked it out and fell in love with most of the characters . One thing that bothered me though is that they ended with Anthony's birthday then just finished it(i know Susan didn't let them film any longer) also they went through part of it not saying anything then suddenly Susan's face appears on the screen and tells what happened (we could have figured that out on our own thank you) i cried lots but a great film !!!!:) also i would advise any one who is either emotional or cant watch medical shows (due to weak stomach) not to watch this film!!

NathansMomInTexas ... "Wow!" Such a simple three-letter word, but it appropriately sums up what I felt about this documentary. What an inspiring, intriguing and interesting story of Ms. Tom and those precious children. I admire her strength and heart to adopt so many special needs children! I highly recommend this film to people of any age, ethnicity, religion or socio-economic background - especially those who are considering adoption as an avenue to have a child (or children) as new editions to their existing family. If you take the time to watch "My Flesh And Blood," be prepared to ride on a roller coaster of emotions. Take a box of Kleenex with you before you strap yourself in!

jon-573 This excellent documentary showcases the remarkable story of the Tom family. Many of the kids are seriously challenged physically or mentally and others are quite normal and somewhat perplexed at the stresses and strains of living together.The key is Susan Tom, Mom, who is nothing short of saintly in her commitment to the welfare of her brood and her dedication to their cause.This is quite the most moving film I have seen in years. The courage shown by her kids in coping with major daily life difficulties is just awesome. It puts our own daily frustrations and challenges into a real perspective compared to the Toms's.A must see film.

faboon77 I was flipping through channels, trying to find something to watch on cable and I stumbled upon this film. I must have missed the first half hour of it, but I became interested almost immediately. I was deeply touched and impressed by the way susan handles each and every one of her children's individual needs. I must have cried and laughed about a million times throughout the movie because this movie shows every aspect of daily life with her children both happy and sad moments. I am really amazed at how she displays the very god sent talent she has, that she uses in order to make a difference in a child's life. She is truly one amazing woman and I would love to tell her myself if I ever got the chance to do so.What I would like to know is if there is any way anyone can send greeting cards, gifts etc to the children and to Susan to show them all how much people like us viewers really care and admire them all for doing what they all are doing which is Living and getting through life. I would like to let them know that I am trying to reach out and touch all of their hands and tell them to keep up the great work and you all are in my prayers. THANKS!! GREAT MOVIE!! SINCERELY ELLIOTT
