Story here.

This story is disturbing. I pray these three young girls are able to fully recover. Excerpt:

'HALTOM CITY, Texas — A woman whose three young daughters were seriously burned was arrested, and neighbors said the mother told a fire investigator she had doused the children with gasoline and set them on fire.

The oldest girl, just 7, screamed, "Why mommy? Why mommy? Why did you do this to me?" after she and her sisters were pulled out of their burning house Saturday, neighbor Kevin Lopez said Monday.

The woman, Alysha Green, 29, had no answer for the fire investigator, Lopez said.

"She was crying and saying `I'm sorry' and she didn't know why she did it," Lopez told The Associated Press.

The girls — ages 7, 5 and 3 — remained in the burn unit of a Dallas hospital Monday; their conditions were not released.'
