Woman Stuck On Toilet - Bizarre Story Out of Kansas
Woman spends 2 years on the toilet and gives Kansas another thing to be famous for...
When I think of Kansas, I remember Laura Ingalls and Little House on the Prairie. I think of wide open spaces, God's country. But after the news today of a woman who sat on the toilet so long her skin grew around the seat, I have another mental image that's giving me the shivers.
Stuck on the ToiletOn February 27, a man called the police in Wichita, Kansas to report that something was wrong with his 35-year-old girlfriend. Apparently she'd been in the bathroom for 2 years and he was worried.
When the police arrived, the girlfriend was sitting on the toilet, her pants around her ankles. It looked as if the woman's skin had grown around the seat and her leg muscles atrophied. The seat had to be pried off the toilet with a crowbar, but was surgically removed later in hospital.
"She was not glued. She was not tied. She was just physically stuck by her body," Brian Whipple, Ness County Sherriff told AP News. "It is hard to imagine. ... I still have a hard time imagining it myself."
We're having a hard time imagining why it took the boyfriend 2 years to call the police. Understandably, when a woman storms off to the bathroom, it's a good idea to give her some breathing space. Let her cool down for a while. But 2 years!?!
It sounds like the pistons aren't quiet firing properly - in either half of that couple
We're sure there are prettier things to imagine in Kansas than the one this story leaves us with...
