A woman who may have spent nearly two years in a bathroom, sitting on the toilet so long that the seat adhered to sores on her body, remains hospitalized and in pain from medical procedures, family members said Wednesday.

Pam Babcock, 35, was found stuck to the toilet in late February after her boyfriend, Kory McFarren, 37, called authorities to say something was wrong with her. Police believe she sat on the toilet for about a month.

"...she spends much of her time sleeping at the hospital's intensive care unit.

"Her wounds are still serious. ... She is not out of the woods by any means. She is a very sick girl,"

Reading through the article, sounds like she has a profound case of agoraphobia.

I knew some one that could not get past the door of her house without panicking..

But this seems like a whole new level..

"Police believe she sat on the toilet for about a month."


Is it just me, or does it seem like there are very few coherent articles written these days? In this one, the headline doesn't even agree with the body of the article.

Sounds like some lawyer has just found himself a great lawsuit against the toilet seat manufacturer.

That would be their Medical opinion, I take it?

It’s not just you.
This makes no sense as do many others posted recently.

Drinking Coffee This lunatic sets a Guinness world record for toilet sitting and we say the guy is nuts.  I'd be selling tickets.

I read in an earlier article that she started off by just staying in the bathroom. Then some time later she sat on the toilet and never got up. The writer should have explained that there was a delay between the two events.

I'm all for respecting folk's privacy and what not, but really, someone ought to snap a non-consenting photo of this woman and post it on the Internet so I can gawk at it.

. . . the headline doesn't even agree with the body of the article . . .

Time on the toilet seat tends to be elastic.
