I don't normally do this, but this is just to weird not to pass on. A woman spent 2 years sitting on a toilet.

Here's the link to the story on MSNBC:

Oh my! I can't even begin to imagine what she must have looked like. I love this part: "Authorities said they did not know if she was mentally or physically disabled." I think if someone sits on the toilet for 2 years, she's at least delusional.

Also, what has the news come to these days?! Seems like this is something that should be in the tabloids, not MSNBC.

Thanks and I heard the story you would have thought that relatives or a few buddies would have checked on her.

lol..I saw that and I was amazed...but why didn't the guy seek help for her sooner

Two years? No way, unless both him and her have serious mental issues! Surely someone who knew them would have investigated after not seeing her for a week? This can't be right?

That really is hard to believe, but I've heard of people doing stranger things.

That is so shocking and sad. Why on earth would the boyfriend let this go on for two years and not get her help? Lot of unanswered questions here.

I had food poisoning once. It seemed like two years spent en toilette, but was probably only a few hours.

If someone asked me where I'd like to spend two years, the toilet would not make the list of my top 200,000 choices.
