Not even a crossbow will solve this one...


Woman sits on boyfriend's toilet for 2 years

Girlfriend was physically stuck to the seat her skin had grown around it


NESS CITY, Kan. - Deputies said a woman in western Kansas sat on her boyfriend's toilet for two years, and they're investigating whether she was mistreated.

Ness County Sheriff Bryan Whipple said a man called his office last month to report that something was wrong with his girlfriend.

Whipple said it appeared the 35-year-old Ness City womans skin had grown around the seat. She initially refused emergency medical services but was finally convinced by responders and her boyfriend that she needed to be checked out at a hospital.

We pried the toilet seat off with a pry bar and the seat went with her to the hospital, Whipple said. The hospital removed it.

Whipple said investigators planned to present their report Wednesday to the county attorney, who will determine whether any charges should be filed against the woman's 36-year-old boyfriend.

She was not glued. She was not tied. She was just physically stuck by her body, Whipple said. It is hard to imagine. ... I still have a hard time imagining it myself.

He told investigators he brought his girlfriend food and water, and asked her every day to come out of the bathroom.

And her reply would be, Maybe tomorrow, Whipple said. According to him, she did not want to leave the bathroom.

The boyfriend called police on Feb. 27 to report that there was something wrong with his girlfriend, Whipple said, adding that he never explained why it took him two years to call.

Police found the clothed woman sitting on the toilet, her sweat pants down to her mid-thigh. She was somewhat disoriented, and her legs looked like they had atrophied, Whipple said.

She said that she didnt need any help, that she was OK and did not want to leave, he said.

She was taken to a hospital in Wichita, about 150 miles southeast of Ness City. Whipple said she has refused to cooperate with medical providers or law enforcement investigators.

Authorities said they did not know if she was mentally or physically disabled.

Police have declined to release the couples names, but the house where authorities say the incident happened is listed in public records as the residence of Kory McFarren. No one answered his home phone number.

The case has been the buzz in Ness City, said James Ellis, a neighbor.


Now you're well freaked out huh? Thank god there were no pictures accompanying that article!

I think we should nuture our sickness benefitting friends. After all they create an anormous amount of administration which keeps the civil service cottage industry ticking over nicely. It also give us something to moan about while vehemently denying that we're pro-tory! :)

Speaking of pro-tory... only one day after the kid is found, I see the Torygraph is busy decrying the police!

The array of clues pointing to the man accused of Shannon Matthews' abduction
This was a dramatic rescue by any standards. Within moments of four police vans screeching down Lidgate Gardens and officers in body armour battering down the door of the dingy maisonette where Michael Donovan was holed up, they had found Shannon Matthews and carried her to safety.
[...]
And yet Shannon, mercifully physically unharmed, was found less than a mile from her home.

Even more shocking, perhaps, is the fact that almost all the vital clues that led to her discovery were in the police's possession: the problem was that no one appears to have collated the information and joined together all the pieces of the jigsaw
Isn't hindsight a truly wonderful thing?

Neither mate - I was thinking more of those people who qualify for disability benefit but arent necessarily too unwell to work wink.gif

I dont think there are as many of those as you think. Most people who are on benifits just want to get well enough to go back to work. i have a friend who is dipressed and has been un-employed for 6 mths. if he goes back to work, hell just be more trouble than hes worth becuase his bosses wont understand his illness so he stays at home. Its not his fault.

It's not that there aren't many, many genuine people who do need disability benefit, but there really are a lot of scammers out there too & IMO they're a lower class of scum than dole blaggers. The whole system really does need a big shake up.

True - its the system that needs the shake up. Clearly there are people out there who need to system and I for one am glad I live in a country that doesnt abandon its needy. But we have to take tough decisions about who can and cant work. And those assesments need to be comprehensive and frequent - for insurance purposes we consider someone fit enough to work if they can sit behind a till. A lot of people will insist they are too unwell to work because they are too unwell to do the job their choice - thats the sort of thing we need to look at.

Personally I think there should be better promotion of insurance policies (I can't believe I just said that!). My critical illness cover kicks in should I be unable to do my job, that's something I choose to pay for, as you say, not a right.

I think its brilliant you insure on that basis - that gives you the choice - but where someone falls back on benefits they need to be more flexible about the work they are prepared to do.

Oh, I completely agree. This is getting disturbing, please could you say something which I can be vehemently opposed to?

Or we could skip the emotional trauma & Stead could just give me half of everything he owns? (I did a poor job of that 1st time round, but now I've had the practise...)
