The contestants in "Survival" experience countless difficulties and bumps.
They are angry, crying and reconciling, but all the dramas on screen often do not match the dramas and pain charges that the contestants carry with them from their personal lives.
"Survival VIP" viewers were exposed to a smashing confession from the mouth of Leah Gil, who experienced a terrible loss in her personal life and shared it with her friends on the island and with the hundreds of thousands of reality viewers.

"I lost three children," Gil, 45, opened the heartbreaking confession in tears.
"They were a trio who were born very early. I did not see the baby at all, she died on the night of the operation," Gil said.
"The second child died after about three weeks, and I already got to know him, he was in infancy. We decided that the third child would not even go to visit in infancy because it is very difficult to see your baby and a week later they will tell you again that the baby is dead ..."
"... then a week and another week passes and the baby does not die, and I went to visit the boy. He was the size of a pound of sugar, man. We took him home. He functioned normally but he had pauses in breathing," she said of the only baby who managed to survive.

"He always had seizures on Fridays," she added.
"I do not know why. I hate Fridays, every time Friday approaches, even today after so many years, straight it brings me back there. You see a child sitting on the chair, and suddenly you see that look, like glass. He was a child. "He was handsome with white curls, blue eyes like the sea, and he would stop breathing. It was very difficult, until one day, at the age of two and a half, he had a seizure and he could not get out of it," she said.

"It happened at home," she revealed the magnitude of the tragedy.
"I tried to resuscitate him, and it does not happen. In 2001 he died. I could have had three 19-year-old children today."
Gil has an eldest daughter from her first marriage and two more sons from her third marriage.
The trio was born as part of their second marriage which ended in divorce.
